Australian charged with outrage of modesty
Published on Nov 15, 2011

Australian James Anthony Woodburn was on Monday charged in a district court with using criminal force to outrage the modesty of a 28-year-old woman.

He allegedly grabbed her breast in the shopping area at Marina Bay Sands, at 12.20am on Oct 15. The 44-year-old regional manager of a marketing firm was also charged with insulting her modesty by showing her his middle finger.

The judge granted an adjournment to allow Woodburn's lawyer time to write to the Attorney- General's Chambers to try to get the charges reduced.

Woodburn, a permanent resident here, was released on bail of $15,000. He is allowed to travel overseas as his job requires him to do so.

An Australian walked out of the district courts a free man on Monday after he was allowed to compound a molestation case, brought against him by a 26-year-old woman.

James Anthony Woodburn settled the matter by apologising to her in court and paying $10,000 to her.

He allegedly grabbed her breast in the shopping area at Marina Bay Sands, at 12.20am, on Oct 15.

The 44-year-old regional manager of a marketing firm had also been charged with insulting her modesty by showing her his middle finger at about the same time.

In his apology, Mr Woodburn - a Singapore permanent resident - said that he was genuinely and truly remorseful of his conduct and deeply regretted his actions.

The slim, 1.7m-tall woman, with shoulder-length hair, later told reporters that she agreed to compound the matter as she wanted to put the incident behind her.
