SINGAPORE, April 6 — While working in a primary school as an operations support officer, Chong Choon Ying took a liking to a Primary 3 pupil and began hugging him on several occasions.
He then molested the eight-year-old boy twice.
It took two years for the victim to muster up the courage to tell his father what had happened.
Chong, 48, was sentenced to one year and two months’ jail and one stroke of the cane today for his actions.
