SINGAPORE – A construction worker found a woman attractive after seeing her in her condominium unit through a window and broke into the apartment to molest her while she was asleep.
The woman discovered his act, but he escaped, only to break into the apartment again just two days later – this time looking at her while he committed a sex act.
On Oct 8, Indian national Thirupathi Mohandas, 41, was sentenced to 13 months’ jail after pleading guilty to two charges of voyeurism and one count of outrage of modesty.
Four other charges, including two counts of housebreaking, were taken into consideration for his sentencing.
On April 29, at about 10.30pm, Mohandas walked past the unit and saw the victim, who was naked, through a window. He found the 35-year-old American woman attractive and resolved to see her the following day. The location of the condo was redacted from court documents.
The next day, at about 11.30pm, Mohandas parked his lorry along a nearby road and walked to the unit and saw the woman.
After loitering outside for about an hour, he climbed over a ledge onto the balcony, where he stood to watch her sleep for about half an hour.
