SINGAPORE: A 42-year-old masseur was jailed six years and eight months and fined S$2,000 on Monday (May 8) for paying four boys to have sex with him and for organising an orgy involving a 14-year-old boy.
Hiew Chung Wai, a Malaysian, pleaded guilty to 11 of 31 charges, including:
- Six counts for having sex with four boys under 16,
- Two counts for aiding and abetting an accomplice to sexually penetrate a 14-year-old boy during the orgy,
- One count of sex trafficking involving the 14-year-old boy,
- One count of receiving payment in connection with the sexual exploitation of the trafficked victim; and
- One count for the possession of 151 obscene films, which depict men having sex with adolescent boys or all-male orgies, the court heard.
In sentencing Hiew, District Judge Shaiffudin Saruwan said the offences were all the more egregious because Hiew had “gone beyond predatory behavior … in the pursuit of his own sexual gratification … (he went) one step further”, the judge said. “He also involved them in sexual orgies with other adults.”
MET ON FACEBOOK, OFFERED CASH FOR SEX
Hiew met his first two victims on Facebook.
He befriended the first victim, then 14, on Facebook in 2011 and sent the boy obscene photos. He also offered him S$30 to S$50 to perform a sex act on him.
The boy ended up meeting Hiew at his flat and was paid S$20 for oral sex.
Hiew got to know his second victim the same year. He offered the 14-year-old S$50 to meet him for lunch and to “have fun” with him afterwards.
The boy said yes, partly due to the money and partly because he found Hiew’s Facebook photo “attractive”, the court heard.
However the photo used by Hiew was not of himself. When he met the boy at his flat, Hiew lied that the person in the photo was his friend and said that the man was not at home that day.
Still, the boy let Hiew perform a sex act on him and was paid S$60. He had a second encounter with Hiew two years later, in May 2013. Though Hiew promised him S$80, he never paid.
VICTIM INTRODUCED HIEW TO FRIENDS
The boy introduced two friends – the third and fourth victims – to Hiew in 2013. The boys, in need of money, were told by the second victim that Hiew was willing to pay boys to have sex with him.
