In what must be the most stomach-churning news we've seen this week, a 32-year-old Singaporean man is now facing trial in the High Court for raping his own mother at their home.
As if that wasn't enough to make you feel ill, the Court heard that the man is also accused of restraining his 56-year-old biological mother, kissing her breasts and forcing her to touch him sexually.
The severely depraved acts were allegedly committed on Oct 3, 2013, The Straits Times reports. He faces one count of rape and two counts of outrage of modesty.
Perhaps as a testament to his alleged indecency, the man has had three lawyers come and go. His application for help under the Criminal Legal Aid Scheme might garner him the services of two legal heavyweights — Senior Counsel Harry Elias and Senior Counsel Chelva Rajah — as his defence lawyers.
