It was in a record label office in 2012 that former Singapore Idol judge Ken Lim allegedly asked the singer and songwriter if she was a virgin, and what would happen if he had sex with her right then.But, after she was made aware that Lim had been charged over similar offences, she decided to come forward and report the matter to the police.

She added that the victim had told her then boyfriend and present husband, as well as her father and sister, what Lim had said to her after the meeting. DPP Wong said the victim was relieved that she had not been molested and did not report the matter. She had not known that uttering sexually inappropriate words is a crime.

DPP Wong said the victim had flown in from London, where she is now based, “to give evidence because, in her words to her sister: ‘Maybe I owe it to myself and all the other girls... now that I am older and wiser’”.
