SINGAPORE : A construction worker who did not have money to pay for a massage refused to leave a Geylang parlour when told to do so, and turned violent to get the masseuse to submit to him.
Two other charges – a second count of rape and a count of criminal trespass – were taken into consideration in sentencing.Deputy Public Prosecutor Maximilian Chew told the High Court that at about 7.35am that day, Sajib arrived for work at a construction site in Geylang but left shortly after to buy some groceries.
He lifted the victim onto his shoulder and threw her on the massage bed located farthest away from the door, as she struggled and shouted for help. DPP Chew said the victim became quiet as she was fearful that the man would kill her if she kept shouting. She held on to the leg of one of the massage beds and grabbed her mobile phone, which was on the bed. When Sajib saw this, he tussled with her for the phone.As she stood outside trying to call for help, Sajib came out of the shop and continued trying to snatch the phone from her.
