SINGAPORE: A 15-year-old student who was involved in several cases of outraging and insulting the modesty of girls in Bukit Batok has been sentenced to 24 months' probation.
This includes a year's probation in a Boys' Home.
The teenager, who turned up in court in his school uniform on Thursday, committed the offences on girls aged between nine and 18 in various apartment lifts.
The boy rushed naked into the lifts where he then touched the buttocks of his victims or flashed at them.
He was arrested on July 6 this year at Lim Chu Kang.
The boy is said to be writing a letter of apology to his victims.
He has also been ordered by the court to carry out 100 hours of community service.
His parents have to each post a bond of S$2,000 for him, ensure his good behaviour and supervise his usage of the computer.
