Ex-model and actor guilty of molest

Mark Chow is as guilty as a guy can be


Former Singaporean TV actor and model, Mark Chow Yee Sze, was found guilty on Thursday of molesting a former operations manager of a pub three years ago.

The 30-year-old was found guilty of molesting the 27-year-old woman at a downtown pub on Jan 10, 2007 after a trial.

The woman had testified that she felt unwell before she started work on Jan 9 that year, and after a few drinks, went up to the office to rest on the sofa.

CCTV footage of what Chow did in the office was shown in court during the trial. His defence was that he was merely trying to wake her up.

He denied putting his hand into her blouse to touch part of her breast.

He was accused of tickling her right palm, patting her head, stroking her left cheek, left arm and the outside of her left thigh, grabbing her hands and left calf, and patting her buttocks.

Pleading for leniency, defence lawyer Subhas Anandan said his client had some mental problems as reported by a Changi General Hospital psychiatrist, and was still being treated.

District Judge Sarjit Singh adjourned sentencing to April 1 to allow the prosecution to address the issues raised in Chow's medical report.

Chow, who has four stood down charges, faces a jail term of up to two years or fine or caning or any two such punishments.

    ppl..we just need to accept that there's always some bad black sheeps in every herd..let's not put the blaming finger to one another. if you want to blame, blame on these individuals (rapists, burglars, molesters etc) whom has shallow mind of teachings and good virtues in them.

    Get a life so-called Australian. Shame on you, unlike other Australians you need to go sign up for some spelling and etiquette classes - probably to get a job. Serious. Oh yes, you probably failed geography too, because you're not even sure if the people responding were Malaysian or Singaporean...
  • sillyboy

    Australian my ass. Dont try to hide or pretend. You're just another **** trying to start some racial tension. Go back to whatever in-bred gene pool you crawled out from.

    If you're a real true blue ozzy, you would bloody well know your kind already thinks they are superior to everyone else. You pencil dicks have a call name for every race.

    So now then, go back to playing with your own racist toys. You got wogs, merries, chinks and curry bashing to keep you busy there. Coming up with new call names should keep your busy.

    Is it me or has there been an increase in sexual offenders and STD in SG?

    There's a lot of sexual related news content about Singapore lately.
  • bored with racism
    i still say main cause of racism is the government's doing. if every1's treated the same, no racism...

    still, im used to it. no need to get so worked up liao. anyone who thinks their race is superior, then prove it by excelling in whatever you do.

    Cina lagi..."

    1 guy/gal is all that it needs to spark off a war here.

    LOL
  • Australian Miss
    Not really a war I guess... just seriously misinformed and ignorant individual fueled it.

    As for the main topic, agree with Neg-Neg-Pos, perhaps it's the oppressed lifestyle of the people there?

    its bcos geylang is dirt cheap.

    Digress a bit, would the 'nice people' at Daily Chilli please shut down the comment functon for its news articles. I suppose the original idea was to have readers pass constructive criticisms and insights on articles published. Unfortunately, it has ended up being a race/religion/sex/nation/citizenship/whatever bashing opportunity for the unfortunate brainless excuses for humanity frequently shown.

    So, anyone agreeing say 'Aye'.
  • disagree!
    i agree with your comment on how others deviate from the main topic in their comments, likewise to what you and me are doing now. but, i couldn't stand along with you with the idea to shut down the comment function. "A man given a weapon could commit a murder or hunt for his community" ;it all depends on the man's maturity to deal with the tools given. Though we can generalize what we are seeing here now is't ideal, we should all learn and change for the better.... we humans were all onece barbarians learning to be civilized step by step.... the oppurtunity to experince is essential for that progress...
  • O'reilly
    True, but in this case, if your line of thought is made practical, it would be a bloody massacre.

    I've surfed through Daily Chilli everyday, and hardly if ever, do I find comments relating to published articles worth reading.

    So better than allow it to be misused by said degenerate brainless excuses for humanity, shut it down till one day (I do and hope pray) our society mature.
  • 'sigh'
    it's hopeless. these type of ppl will find other means to spark racism. Hopeless... aihhhhh
  • NOT' reilly
    NAY
  • some mistake
    is't ideal = isn't ideal

    onece barbarians = once barbarians

    oppurtunity to = opportunity to
  • MUNIANDY
    WTF...U GUYS ARE ALL SHIT..CRIME CAN BE DONE BY ANYONE...NOT A PARTICULAR RACE....pls be careful on what u post...
