A married hotel assistant manager who repeatedly asked a 15-year-old part-time employee to show him her body during a late-night video call was sentenced to 21 days\u2019 jail after exposing himself to her.<\/p>\n
The 42-year-old man, Salim Shamim Ahmad, pleaded guilty to one charge of exposing himself.<\/p>\n
According to Shin Min Daily News, Salim was the girl\u2019s supervisor at a hotel in Singapore when the incident occurred in December 2024.<\/p>\n
Supervisor offered girl extra money to work overtime<\/h2>\n
On Dec 2, 2024, the girl was scheduled to work from 5pm to 1am the following day.<\/p>\n
Salim asked her to stay back for another two hours, promising to pay her an additional $50, which she accepted.<\/p>\n

After her shift, Salim asked her to accompany him to an ATM, saying he needed to withdraw money to pay her overtime wages.<\/p>\n
Although he had initially promised her $50, he gave her $80 instead. He also arranged a ride home for her and handed her another $60 to cover the fare.<\/p>\n
After watching her board the vehicle, Salim returned to the hotel.<\/p>\n
\u2018Can you do something to make me happy?\u2019<\/h2>\n
At about 4am, after the girl reached home, Salim sent her a message asking whether she had arrived safely.<\/p>\n

When she replied, he requested a five-minute video call.<\/p>\n
The girl told him she was tired and wanted to sleep, but Salim insisted on speaking to her, and she eventually answered.<\/p>\n
He initially claimed that he was bored and merely wanted someone to talk to.<\/p>\n
Despite the girl repeatedly saying she wanted to sleep, Salim continued the conversation and asked whether she could do something to make him happy.<\/p>\n
When she did not understand what he meant, he repeated the question two or three times.<\/p>\n

The girl told him that he should not be asking such strange questions.<\/p>\n
Salim subsequently asked her to lower the neckline of her shirt so he could see her shoulders, but she refused.<\/p>\n
He then asked her to lift her shirt, which she also refused to do.<\/p>\n
Salim proceeded to turn the camera towards his private parts<\/a> and masturbated<\/a> during the video call.<\/p>\n The girl confronted Salim over his behaviour, questioning why he would do such a thing when he was already married.<\/p>\n According to Shin Min, Salim claimed that he \u201cjust wanted to look\u201d.<\/p>\n When the girl said she was going to end the call, he asked her to continue talking to him for another five minutes.<\/p>\n She hung up instead.<\/p>\n The girl subsequently told an 18-year-old male part-time colleague about what had happened. The colleague helped her make a police<\/a> report.<\/p>\n Salim was arrested on Jan 15, 2025, and released on bail the same day.<\/p>\n During mitigation, Salim\u2019s lawyer told the court that his client wanted to apologise to the girl and had realised his mistake.<\/p>\n The lawyer also highlighted that Salim had no previous convictions and urged the court to consider a two-week jail term.<\/p>\n Salim was ultimately sentenced to 21 days\u2019 jail.<\/p>\n Have something to say?
