Bugis hotel employee charged for allegedly molesting female tourist

A male employee at a Bugis capsule hotel was taken to court on Monday (March 24) for allegedly molesting a female tourist at the accommodation. The 41-year-old Bangladeshi national is accused of outraging the modesty of a 45-year-old woman at The Room @ Bugis on Saturday afternoon. The man had hugged the victim tightly and stopped her from leaving so as to commit the acts, stated court documents obtained by AsiaOne. A gag order was issued to protect the victim's identity. In a now-deleted post on social media platform Threads, the tourist claimed the employee had pushed her on a bed and attempted to sexually assault her, reported Lianhe Zaobao. The victim told Zaobao in a subsequent interview that she was travelling solo in Singapore and had booked her trip from March 16 to 25. According to her, guests at the capsule hotel were mainly backpackers, and there was only one worker in the hotel. The beds were covered only by a translucent curtain, she said.

Indonesian who flashed SIA stewardess claims he was in 'troubled state' over leaving his friends

SINGAPORE — After downing two glasses of champagne, a business class passenger on board a Singapore Airlines plane decided to expose himself to an air stewardess. Brilliant Angjaya, 23, an Indonesian, also used his phone to record the air stewardess' reaction to his indecent act. On March 24, Angjaya was sentenced to three weeks' jail after pleading guilty to one count of sexual exposure. In sentencing, District Judge Paul Quan said Angjaya's actions were «inexplicable» and «inexcusable». The incident happened on board a Singapore Airlines flight from China to Singapore on Jan 23. Further details about the flight and air stewardess cannot be revealed due to a gag order to protect the victim's identity. The court heard that during the flight, Angjaya had an in-flight meal and two glasses of champagne before he went to sleep.
