Former Grab driver accused of trying to rape 19-year-old drunk passenger

SINGAPORE - A former private-hire driver with Grab has been accused of sexually assaulting and trying to rape a drunken 19-year-old passenger in the car's backseat.

The DPP said the prosecution will be seeking to admit two police statements to prove that Tan observed the woman's"erratic behaviour" before committing the offences. Tan then drove to a more secluded area, and after stopping the car, he got into the backseat again and fondled her but she pushed him away.

She was later found lying in the middle of the road some distance away by another private-hire driver who called the police and waited for paramedics to arrive.
