Prosecutors said that after forcing the woman to spend the night with him, the man took her back to her place. After his arrest, the man admitted to the sexual acts but claimed that they were consensual. The prosecution said she did not consent to have sex with the man because she was put in «fear of injury» at the time. The sexual acts took place after the man had physically assaulted the woman and threatened to hurt her with a metal rod, said prosecutors. The case is believed to be the first marital rape trial after immunity for husbands was repealed with effect from Jan 1, 2020. A gag order prohibits the publication of any details leading to identification of both the woman and the man, as well as the location where the incident took place. Both of them are foreigners who work in Singapore. The woman lived in a flat provided for by her employer, while the man lived elsewhere.
