The 39-year-old man pleaded guilty to two charges of aggravated sexual assault by penetration and one charge of outrage of modesty.A woman who was sexually exploited by her step-uncle as a teenager broke her silence about it several years later, after she spotted the man in public while she was with her husband and in-laws.
Another eight charges for various sexual offences, including sexual penetration of a minor, were taken into consideration. She “struggled between being increasingly aware that what they were doing was wrong and thinking that they had mutual feelings for each other”, said deputy public prosecutors Lee Zu Zhao and June Ngian.She did not contact him after she moved out of the maisonette flat in 2018 and got married in November that year.
He had initially contested all 11 charges, but during the trial, he decided to plead guilty before the victim took the stand.
