Re: Man who molested woman on crowded MRT train gets 18 months' jail, 4 strokes of ca
Super repeat offender...that's why the sentence so harsh.
Aw has had previous convictions since 1999 for, among other offences, criminal trespass, insulting the modesty of a woman, theft, outrage of modesty and housebreaking.
DPP Chew highlighted several aggravating factors in the molest case such as the fact that the offence took place on public transportation and the incident had left the victim traumatised. Aw had been convicted of outrage of modesty three times before - in 2005, 2013 and 2014.
I wonder if it's the first time he gets the cane. Jail is no use for this type of people...cannot control means cannot control one.
