Info from Megan Khung's pre-school gave no reason for ECDA to suspect girl's abuse: MSF

SINGAPORE — A series of lapses in the reporting of abuse and follow-up checks contributed to the death of four-year-old Megan Khung, who was physically and emotionally abused for more than a year. During that period, she was forced to wear soiled diapers over her head, eat food from the dustbin and eat her mother's mucus. She died in 2020 after a fatal punch to the stomach, and her mother and her then boyfriend burned her body to hide their crime. Teachers at the young girl's pre-school, Healthy Start Child Development Centre (HSCDC), had observed visible injuries on her in March 2019. The centre, which is run by social service agency Beyond Social Services, submitted a report to the Early Childhood Development Agency (ECDA) in early April 2019. The ECDA is the regulatory authority for pre-schools here. «However, the report did not fully describe the severity of the injuries, as compared to the evidence presented in the Court documents when Megan's mother and her partner were being charged,» the Ministry of Social and Family Development (MSF) told The Straits Times on April 8.

Man pleads guilty to taking upskirt photos at Paya Lebar MRT station, injuring victim while fleeing

A 20-year-old man pleaded guilty to three counts of voyeurism on Monday (April 7) after he was caught taking upskirt photos and a video of a woman in Paya Lebar MRT station. On Sept 24, 2024, a 29-year-old Korean woman felt something hitting her calf while on an escalator out of the station. Suspicious of his intentions, the victim asked to check Benjamin Kow's phone and found an upskirt video and multiple blurry upskirt photos, Shin Min Daily News reported. When she called the police, Kow grabbed his phone and attempted to flee, pushing the victim and causing injuries to her elbow and ankles. Hearing calls for help, a male passerby got onto a bicycle, chased after the accused and stopped him. The report said that Kow attempted to delete video evidence while waiting for the police to arrive. Investigations revealed that Kow had prior instances of committing voyeurism, where he took upskirt photos of two other women at Dakota MRT station on separate occasions. No reports were filed at the time as the victims were not aware of his actions.
