SINGAPORE - A secondary school teacher pleaded guilty today to a string of offences that involved him using his mobile phone to take upskirt videos.

Seow Swee Hong, 39, who taught at a school in the eastern part of Singapore, was picked up by police on July 25 last year.

A store manager of the Popular bookstore at Toa Payoh HDB Hub had caught him taking upskirt videos of female students there.

In one instance, he took out his mobile phone, knelt down to position his phone near one student's legs, and recorded a video of her shorts and thighs.

He then continued to follow her and took more videos of her shorts and thighs as she walked or stood in the bookstore.

Court documents revealed that earlier that day, Seow had also taken similar videos of some female students in the school he taught at.

The video recordings in his phone showed images of the students' thighs as they walked up the stairs and while they were sitting in the canteen.

Other videos taken at supermarkets on different days were also found in his mobile phone.

Prosecution proceeded on 10 charges of insulting the modesty of women, and took 84 into consideration.

The court heard that he committed at least half of the offences while he was on police bail.

Most of his victims were girls dressed in school uniforms.

Defence counsel David Liew asked for a pre-sentencing report, citing that his client had obsessive-compulsive disorder, and could not control himself.

Seow will be back in court on Oct 12 for sentencing.

He could be sentenced to one year's jail and fined on each charge.

ST, Edvantage | Fri Sep 28 2012

SINGAPORE - A teacher pleaded guilty to 10 of 94 charges of insulting the modesty of women.

Seow Swee Hong, 39, who taught in a school in the eastern part of Singapore, used his mobile phone to capture video recordings of victims' shorts and thighs at the school, and at the Popular bookstore at Toa Payoh HDB Hub last year.

A court heard that he committed at least half of the offences while on police bail.

Deputy Public Prosecutor Lee Zu Zhao said Seow was in school on July 25 last year when he took a video recording of a female student's upper thighs while she was walking up the stairs.

He also took a video recording of three more students' thighs while they were sitting in the canteen.

That afternoon, while he was at Popular in Toa Payoh HDB Hub, he saw a student crouching and browsing at the shelves. He knelt down and took a video recording of her undergarments. He followed her and took three more videos of the same girl.

After that, he took a video recording of the panties of another student at the bookstore.

While on court bail, he committed another similar offence on Oct 23 last year.

The remaining 84 charges will be taken into consideration when he is sentenced on Oct 12.

His lawyer, Mr David Liew, had asked for a pre-sentencing report. He said his client was suffering from obsessive compulsive disorder and was receiving counselling.

The maximum penalty for insulting modesty is one year's jail and a fine on each charge.
