When the mother of the victim saw an incriminating video of the pair years later in 2013, she cut off contact with the victim.
SINGAPORE: A man was sentenced to 20 years' jail on Monday for raping the underage daughter of his girlfriend-turned-wife repeatedly since she was 12.
The pair began dating soon after. At the time, the woman had four children from a previous marriage. The victim was her second child, and the offender took a special liking to her. The girl was 12 at the time. They continued to engage in intercourse about three times a week until 2008, when the offender went to jail for other crimes, the prosecution said.
She felt guilty"about having a sexual relationship with her mother's husband and wanted to move on with her life", the prosecutors said. He highlighted the man's persistence in committing the offences and pointed to how the man's"selfish and predatory actions" tainted the victim's childhood"irrevocably".
