新加坡販毒只可以判死刑，但性侵犯子女只係坐幾年監就走人
SINGAPORE: Over a period of three years, a 47-year-old man forced his lover's children, aged eight and nine, to watch pornography and reenact the scenes while he filmed them. He was a diagnosed paedophile and father of three who had done jail time for molesting his four-year-old daughter just two years prior. For his new crimes, he was sentenced to 24 years in jail and given 24 strokes of the cane in 2020.
In 2019, a convicted rapist sexually violated his 16-year-old granddaughter. He had also asked the victim's younger sister to have sex with him. Twenty years ago, the same man had been convicted of rape, molestation and carnal intercourse against his daughter and four of her friends, then between 13 and 17. He had already served his jail term of 12 years and received 12 strokes.
When his wife discovered his actions against their granddaughter, she made him promise not to do it again, but did not report his crimes. News reports do not suggest that she tried to separate him from the victims.
And in October, a 62-year-old taxi driver was jailed for 21-and-a-half years for sexually abusing his teenage daughter over three years. The man told his daughter he “was teaching her how to protect herself” as he performed these acts on her. The girl later attempted suicide twice.
Intra-familial sexual assault against children. Even seeing the words together on a screen turns the stomach. The home is where our kids should feel safest; family members are meant to be protectors, not predators.
