A 27-year-old man in Singapore was sentenced to 14 weeks in jail for threatening to distribute intimate videos of his ex-girlfriend to her family and friends.
A 27-year-old man was sentenced to 14 weeks in jail yesterday after admitting to threatening his ex-girlfriend with the distribution of intimate videos of her to her family and friends.

The victim, whose identity is protected by a gag order, had been in a relationship with Gobinath before they broke up but remained friends. The court heard that Gobinath secretly used the screen recording function during video calls in October 2022 to capture two intimate videos of the victim. He also recorded two intimate encounters with the victim in October and November 2022, with only the November recording being consensual. The situation escalated after a quarrel on November 19, 2022, when Gobinath threatened via text to send one of the videos to the victim’s friend.
