She later realised what he did was wrong and ran away from home as she was afraid of living with him.
SINGAPORE – A 41-year-old man will be put behind bars for attempting to rape his girlfriend’s daughter in a toilet late at night 14 years ago.
The man, who cannot be named to protect the identity of the victim, now 26, was on May 29 sentenced to six years and seven months’ jail and eight strokes of the cane. The court heard that the man had been in a relationship with the victim’s biological mother since 2004, and they got married in 2015. They have four children, who are now aged between 11 and 19.
He molested her in September 2013 when the victim was watching television with her step-siblings in a room. The girl’s mother was not home at the time. She shared her fears with her mother, who arranged for her to live with a foster family. The girl has lived with them since. Defence lawyer Michelle Tang said in mitigation that her client’s offence was not premeditated. Instead, he had “seized an opportunity”.
