M'sian jailed for molesting pupil on school excursion
By Khushwant Singh
Gee Ah Meng, 54, was jailed to 2 1/2 months.
GEE Ah Meng, 54, went up to a 10-year-old pupil on a school excursion at Changi airport and caressed the boy's chest for about 30 seconds in November last year.
The unmarried Malaysian pleaded guilty to outraging the modesty of his victim and was jailed 2 1/2 months on Monday.
A second charge of touching the chest of another pupil two minutes later was taken into consideration by the judge.
His jail term was backdated to Nov 16, the date he was remanded.
Gee, who is jobless, could have been jailed up to five years and fined or caned for molesting victims under the age of 14.
