SINGAPORE — The vice-principal and executive director of a pre-school who covered up the molestation of a two-year-old girl by the school's cook were jailed for three months and two weeks, and four months, respectively.During sentencing on Jan 19, District Judge Sharmila Sripathy-Shanaz said the two women were supposed to act as protectors of the children and to shield them from harm.Instead, their involvement in deleting CCTV footage of the sexual assault showed profound betrayal in the trust that society had in them to protect these vulnerable children, added the judge.«The egregious nature of their acts cannot be understated,» said the judge, adding that the footage was important as the children could neither articulate their experiences nor give testimony to what was done to them.The principal, 62, who was convicted of intentionally omitting information on the sexual assault, is expected to be sentenced in March.The three women had pleaded guilty on Dec 19, 2025, to covering up the crimes of Teo Guan Huat, 61.
