SINGAPORE — A man was upset that his former girlfriend had moved on from their relationship in which he abused her, ambushed the 20-year-old woman at her home, and raped her in her bedroom. Throughout the assault, he blamed her for his actions, prosecutors told the High Court on Jan 20. As he repeatedly slapped her, he asked: «Why do you have to make me do this?» Just before he sexually violated her, he told her that this was what she «asked for». After the assault, which he said was «for her own good», he suggested that they should get back together. The clean-cut 26-year-old man was sentenced to 10 years and six weeks in jail, and nine strokes of the cane. He cannot be named under a gag order to protect the victim's identity. He had pleaded guilty to a charge of rape, a charge of voluntarily causing hurt and a charge of mischief for cutting his electronic ankle tag while he was on bail. Two other charges, for sexual offences against the victim, were taken into consideration during sentencing.
