SINGAPORE (ANN): Looking for a sugar daddy, a 16-year-old girl offered sexual services on online classified advertisement network Locanto and a contractor offered her $500 (RM1, 519) in exchange for sexual intercourse.
But Andy Kow Yong Wen, 42, continued to make the offer despite knowing the girl's age, and she refused to give in to his request.
It is an offence in Singapore to obtain commercial sex from anyone below 18 years old. The girl cannot be named due to a gag order to protect her identity. During their chats until Aug 13, 2017, the girl told Kow that she was 16 years old and sent the man her pictures when he asked for them. Before she alighted at a basement carpark, Kow touched her private parts and gave her $50 , which she accepted.
Kow's offence came to light when the girl's mother looked through the messages on her mobile phone. The woman alerted the police on Aug 25, 2017, and officers arrested Kow two days later.
