Woman cleared of incest
By Elena Chong

A YOUNG woman accused of incest was granted a discharge not amounting to an acquittal on Tuesday.

The 23-year-old technical executive is believed to be the first woman to have been charged with allowing her 46-year-old father to have sex with her willingly in the master bedroom of their flat in Serangoon at about 11.30pm in April 2008.

The father, a freelance plumber, was to have been charged that day as well but did not show up. The court has issued a warrant for his arrest. He is still at large and police investigations are still on-going.

The woman's lawyer, Mr SS Dhillon, told Community Court judge Ng Peng Hong that his representations had been successful.

Deputy Public Prosecutor Davyd Chong applied for the order. No reason was given in court.

Under the law, any woman 16 years and above who 'with consent, permits her grandfather, father, brother, half-brother, son or grandson (whether such relationship is or is not traced through lawful wedlock)' to have sex with her is guilty of incest.

The maximum penalty for the offence is up to five years' jail.

I wonder why racism is so entrenched in the Asian consciousness. I see it in Malaysia, Japan, Singapore. Perhaps it has got to do with ignorance and a collectivist culture.

just curious.. is this kind of "incest" things common in japan society ?
seem that this 'incest" is a common category of jap porn.

 

[petertok]

I am not surprised at all that she has been discharged, it is not a real case of incest as she is not biologically linked to her step father . She does not have any blood relationship with her step father who became her lover.

wahlaneh...
incest is as old as Adam&Eve times liao lah.
during those times, according to Bible, no other human beings were on earth except A&E n their kids.
in sg context, actually there are many incest relationships behind closed doors until recently exposed lor.

Think they didn't want to charge her without charging her father at the same time. Charges were withdrawn, not dropped, so they can charge her again, probably will once her father is caught.

someone pointed out that the 'father' is actually her stepfather, so while 'techincally' they committed incest but in reality there isn't any blood relations.
