SINGAPORE - A former full-time national serviceman with the Singapore Police Force was sentenced to 10 weeks’ jail on Thursday for criminal trespass andDistrict Judge Brenda Tan had earlier convicted Jonathan Chua Wei Cong, 26, of the offences after a trial.
In earlier proceedings, Deputy Public Prosecutor Tan Zhi Hao said that Chua and two male course mates had ended their lessons at the unit sometime after 4.30pm on March 12, 2019.According to the two course mates, they left the male toilet first, and Chua caught up with them 30 seconds to three minutes later.During the trial, the victim testified that she had gone to take a shower at around 4.45pm and that she heard the main toilet door open about 10 minutes later.
“The victim froze initially before she reacted by shouting ‘Oi’ loudly. She saw the phone move downwards, disappearing from her sight. She heard the main toilet door widen before she heard the said door close.” DPP Tan said: “While on the stand, the victim stated that when she saw the phone pointed at her, she ‘blanked out’ and felt ‘humiliated’... She broke down and started sobbing when she was asked to recall how she felt.”On Thursday, DPP Tan urged the court to sentence Chua to between 10 and 12 weeks’ jail, stressing that the victim had suffered trauma following the incident.
