In a deeply disturbing case that has sent shockwaves through Singapore, a 46-year-old man is facing serious allegations of incest and voyeurism involving his own daughters. This shocking revelation came to light during a court appearance on December 27, where the man was charged with multiple offenses that are both heinous and troubling.
According to court documents, the accused allegedly committed incest with his eldest daughter—a victim over the age of 16—on three separate occasions between 2021 and 2023. In an even more disturbing twist, he reportedly recorded videos of his younger daughter, who was just 13 at the time, while she was showering in January. These acts were committed without her consent, adding another layer of cruelty to the already alarming situation.
In total, the man faces three counts of incest, seven counts of voyeurism, and a count of possessing obscene films. The incidents reportedly took place in the family's flat located in Bedok North. Specifically, the allegations state that he video-recorded his older daughter in a compromising position at around 5:30 AM on January 7, as well as capturing similar footage of his younger daughter on five separate occasions between January 1 and January 11.
Further compounding the charges, it has emerged that the man was involved in a video call with another victim, during which she was allegedly performing a sexual act, which he also recorded without consent. On top of this, authorities discovered that he possessed 25 obscene films on his mobile device as of April 5.
This case has highlighted serious discussions about child protection laws in Singapore and the ongoing need for vigilance in safeguarding minors from such abhorrent acts. The legal framework allows for severe penalties, with up to five years of imprisonment for each count of incest and penalties for child voyeurism that could lead to two years in prison, in addition to fines or caning.
The court has scheduled the next hearing for February 7, 2025, but the impact of this case will resonate far beyond the courtroom, raising questions about the safety of children in domestic settings and the obligations of society to safeguard their welfare.
Stay tuned as this harrowing case unfolds, and ensure that the voices of victims are heard!
