Police NSF Allegedly Placed Phone On Top Of Toilet Door To Film Women At Police Headquarters

Another day, another case of someone being charged for filming people in the toilet.

Just a short while ago, a National University of Singapore (NUS) student was accused of filming a female student showering.

Today, it’s a full-time police national serviceman.

I don’t know which is scarier- feeling unsafe in your own school or someone who is supposed to be the embodiment of the law committing a crime. 

Police NSF Allegedly Filmed Woman At Headquarter Of Police K-9 Unit 

Jonathan Chua Wei Cong, 22, a police full-time national serviceman (NSF) allegedly placed his phone at the top of a cubicle door in a woman’s toilet, with its camera lens pointing towards a woman at around 5pm on 12 March this year.

According to The Straits Times, he allegedly committed the crime at the headquarters of the Police K-9 Unit in Mowbray Road, Near Choa Chu Kang Way.

Slapped With Three Charges 

Chua has since been hauled to court.

He was slapped with three charges on 18 December in a district court. The three charges are as follow: insulting a woman’s modesty, trespassing in a woman’s toilet and having an obscene film in his possession.

Chua is still doing his national service and will be back in court on 8 January 2020.

Statement From The Police 

Officers of the force are expected to uphold the law and maintain high standards of discipline and integrity.

This includes officers fulfilling their national service.

Its spokesman warned that those who commit criminal offences “will be charged in court and dealt with in accordance with the law”.

The police are unable to comment further on Chua’s case as it is still ongoing.

Offenders can face jail time for up to a year and be fined for insulting a woman’s modesty.

If convicted of trespassing, they can be jailed for up to three months and fined a maximum of $1,500.

For possession of obscene films, offenders can expect a maximum jail term of six months and a fine of at least $500 for each clip.

Let’s hope that victims of these crimes would be able to get the justice that they deserve.
