Extramarital affairs are, for obvious reasons, unethical.
But extramarital harassment? As a Wise Old Man would say:
“That’s deserving of a place in a Squid Game competition.”
Man Fined $4K for Harrassing Lover with Lewd & Threatening Messages After She Ended Their Affair
When Ritchie Richard Li Qingping’s extramarital affair ended in 2018, he did not, like how K-Drama leads would, repent for his sins.
Instead, he chose to go all-out in pursuit of his former lover, even if it meant harassment.
Apparently, the affair started in 2016. Both parties, Li and his lover, were married to other individuals.
In 2018, however, his lover opted to end the affair.
She eventually ceased all contact with Li, after realising that the latter’s wife knew of the affair.
But Li was not acceptant of it.
On 18 August 2020, Li sent his former lover messages through WhatsApp. Even though she did not reply him, Li persisted in his endeavour.
The text messages soon escalated to calls, which were also ignored.
Then on 21 August 2020, Li sent a questionable picture:
A photo of the woman on a hotel bed, which was taken while they were having intercourse.
Li questioned why the woman wanted to end the affair. Apparently, the latter simply rejected his advances and told him to look after his family.
“Peace Is Earned”
It should be noted that the woman had reportedly abstained from blocking him, as she feared that he would look for her at her workplace or home.
She even ended up quitting her new job.
But Li did not take the hint.
On 1 September 2020, he was at it again.
This time, he stated that he would go and look for her if she ignored him again.
The woman replied the next day, telling him not to message her again.
But Li only said:
“Peace is earned.”
On 4 September, he continued with lewd messages, and reportedly kept at it till 13 September 2020.
Deputy Public Prosecutor Goh Yong Ngee said: “The accused continued to send spam messages… till Sept 13, 2020. The complainant replied… telling the accused to stop contacting her and to focus on his children.”
“The complainant explicitly told the accused that she was frightened by what the accused was doing.”
And on 15 September 2020, the woman had enough.
She filed a police report, and Li was apprehended later that day.
For harassment, Li was fined S$4,000 on 30 September 2021.
