SINGAPORE: A man was on Friday sentenced to two years and four months' jail for the statutory rape of a teenage girl he met in a Japanese street style group.
The duo met in 2018, when the victim joined a local group that embraces"Harajuku culture", referring to a street style popular in Japan. In May 2018, the victim sent the offender a text message saying that she felt insecure about her hair, which she had recently cut. The family member knew that the victim spent time with people from the Harajuku culture group and informed the victim's mother.The victim's mother made a police report after confronting the offender.
Mr Ng argued that the offender exploited the victim's young age and also"morally corrupted" her by teaching her how to perform sex acts. Mr Wee sought a shorter sentence of one-and-a-half years' jail, arguing that his client was found to suffer from an intellectual disability.
