The teacher invited the boy to his home, where he asked him sexual questions and plied him with alcohol.
SINGAPORE: A former teacher from a top school in Singapore was sentenced to 54 days' jail on Friday for showing pornographic material to a teenage student.
In January 2021, the victim's mother emailed the teacher, seeking help for her son as she wanted to find out how he was doing in school. The boy went home and told his mother what happened, expressing surprise and gratitude that an adult man could understand him so well. The teacher then began asking the boy sexual questions and showed him some links to pornographic websites.
He told his mother about it the next day. The matter was escalated to school authorities and the vice-principal filed a police report. The teacher resigned that same month.
