Accident – Death – Obituary News :
A 16-year-old resident of Singapore Boys’ Hostel has pleaded guilty to multiple charges related to the abuse of a younger fellow resident. The victim, who was under 16 years of age at the time, was subjected to degrading acts including being forced to strip naked and lick the offender’s shoes. The incident took place on July 19 last year.
Charges and Legal Proceedings
The offender admitted to four charges, including harassment, voluntarily causing hurt, insulting the modesty of the victim, and distributing child abuse material. Additionally, five other charges will be taken into consideration during sentencing. To protect the identities of those involved, all parties in the case cannot be named.
Details of the Abuse
According to court documents, the victim, the offender, and a co-accused identified as B2 were residents at the hostel. The abuse began when the victim accused the offender and B2 of stealing money from him. In response, the pair assaulted the victim in a common toilet at the hostel, warning him against making further accusations.
Following this initial incident, the offender, B2, and another teenager identified as B3 met the victim outside the hostel and coerced him into skipping school with them. The trio then physically assaulted the victim in a car park, recording the abuse on a mobile phone. The victim was forced to strip naked, lick the offenders’ shoes, and perform degrading acts while being filmed.
Legal Consequences
While the offender is expected to be sentenced in July, B2’s case is still pending before the courts, and B3 is currently under investigation. Distributing child abuse material can lead to a maximum sentence of seven years in jail, a fine, or caning. Harassment, voluntarily causing hurt, and insulting modesty also carry significant penalties under Singaporean law.
The victim, who suffered multiple injuries during the abuse, was taken to the hospital for treatment. The long-term impact of the incident on the victim’s well-being remains unknown.
