SINGAPORE — A 22-year-old man was convicted on Jan 15 by the High Court of raping his younger cousin at his home when he was a teenager.The assaults took place between 2016 and 2018, when the perpetrator was between 12 and 15 years old and his victim between eight and 10 years old.The man, who denied all the allegations, went on trial in May 2025 on three charges.On Jan 15, he was convicted of one count of rape and one count of sexual assault by penetration.In a written judgment, Justice Valerie Thean found the victim's testimony on these two charges to be unusually convincing.On the other hand, the man's evidence was not credible, said the judge.The judge acquitted him of the third charge of rape because the victim could not give sufficient details about a specific incident.Justice Thean said: «While I accept she was a truthful witness, I am concerned with the sufficiency of detail on (the charge). I find it unsafe to hold that the prosecution has met its burden of proof on this charge.»
