SINGAPORE: A boy was abused by his foster father, who manipulated him under the pretext of a “check” before allowing computer use. The 63-year-old was sentenced to 13 months in jail after the victim, now 19, disclosed the abuse during a 2022 school counseling session, having realized its wrongfulness through sexual education classes. The prosecution condemned the accused for exploiting his role as a father figure for personal gratification, emphasizing the betrayal of trust involved.
