SINGAPORE: A former professional jockey was sentenced to one-and-a-half years' jail on Friday for paying a 13-year-old boy for sex.
Aslam asked the boy for his age via the application, and the victim said he was 17, even though he was 13."Despite the small stature and youthful look of the victim, the accused took no steps to verify the victim's age upon the meeting for the first time," said Deputy Public Prosecutor Gabriel Lim.More than a week after this, the boy returned to Aslam's house for a second session. This time, Aslam took a video without the boy's knowledge.
"He is no longer allowed to ride racehorses and has lost his livelihood," said the lawyer, adding that Aslam was the sole breadwinner of his family as a single father of three kids, with an elderly mother to provide for. He said his client had"absolutely no reason" to suspect that the victim was under 16, or"even worse, under 14".
