A man living in a rental flat in Jurong West returned home from a trip to an alarming sight — an unknown naked woman in his bed.
The tenant, who wished to remain anonymous, told Shin Min Daily News that the incident took place on March 2 at The Lakeshore condominium at Jurong West Street 41, where he had rented a bedroom for $1,050 a month since August 2025 on a one-year lease.
He had gone to his hometown for Chinese New Year with his wife and, upon his return, opened the door to his room and found a topless woman, wearing only her underpants, sleeping in his bed.
He told the Chinese daily: "She was startled awake when I opened the door and immediately told me to close the door quickly so she could get dressed, then hurriedly left.
"I clearly remember locking the door before leaving, and suddenly seeing someone lying in my room terrified me!"
He was glad his wife had not returned to the flat with him as he would be in deep trouble.
When he contacted his landlord, the latter told him that the woman was a friend of his domestic helper who was only staying there for a night as she worked late at a massage parlour and could not take the bus home.
The tenant did not find any items in his room to be missing but was suspicious, and wanted his landlord to refund him for the month's rent and return him his $2,100 deposit immediately.
"I'd been back in China for so long, who knows if she had really only stayed over for a day? I felt like I couldn't live there and wanted to move out immediately, but [the landlord] said I hadn't completed my lease, which I thought was unreasonable."
He had to stay until the end of the month instead to avoid forfeiting his deposit, and said that he suffered bouts of insomnia and had to take sick leave from work. In the end, landlord reportedly only refunded him the final day's rent of $30 and $1,000 of his deposit.
The tenant has since filed a police report, which Shin Min received confirmation of from the police.
"After [the tenant] returned to his home country, the domestic helper knew the room was empty, so she let the woman lie down for a while, as the latter was planning to take the first train home the next morning. However, he returned shortly afterward," he shared.
"Considering the tenant's dissatisfaction, I later had the domestic helper wash his sheets, and when he moved out, I refunded one day's rent and his deposit.
"I think I've been very sincere."
