The Toa Payoh ritual murders took place in Singapore in 1981. On 25 January the body of a nine-year-old girl was found dumped next to the lift of a block of flats in the Toa Payoh district and, two weeks later, a ten-year-old boy was found dead nearby. The children had been killed, purportedly as blood sacrifices to the Hindu goddess Kali. The murders were masterminded by Adrian Lim, a self-styled medium, who had tricked scores of women into believing he had supernatural powers. His victims offered money and sexual services in exchange for cures, beauty, and good fortune. Two of the women became his loyal assistants; Tan Mui Choo married him, and Hoe Kah Hong became one of his "holy wives". When the police investigated a rape charge filed by one of Lim's targets, he became furious and decided to kill children to derail the investigations. On each occasion, Hoe lured a child to Lim's flat where he or she was drugged and killed by the trio. Lim also sexually assaulted the girl before her death. The trio were arrested after the police found a trail of blood that led to their flat. Although the case name suggested ritualistic murders,[1][2] the defendants said they did not conduct prayers, burning of joss sticks, ringing of bells, or any other rituals during the killings.[3]
The 41-day trial was the second longest to have been held in the courts of Singapore at the time. None of the defendants denied their guilt. Their appointed counsels tried to spare their clients the death sentence by pleading diminished responsibility, arguing that the accused were mentally ill and could not be held entirely responsible for the killings. To support their case they brought in doctors and psychologists, who analysed the defendants and concluded that they had exhibited schizophrenia, and depressions of the psychotic and manic order. The prosecution's expert, however, refuted these testimonies and argued that they were in full control of their mental faculties when they planned and carried out the murders. The judges agreed with the prosecution's case and sentenced the trio to death. While on death row, the women appealed to the Privy Council in London and pleaded for clemency from the President of Singapore to no avail. Lim did not seek any pardons; instead, he accepted his fate and went smiling to the gallows. The three were hanged on 25 November 1988.
The Toa Payoh ritual murders shocked the public in Singapore, who were surprised by such an act taking place in their society. Reports of the trio's deeds and the court proceedings were closely followed and remained prominent in the Singaporean consciousness for several years. Twice, movie companies tried to capitalise on the sensation generated by the murders by producing motion pictures based on the killings; however, critics panned both films for indulging in gratuitous sex and violence, and the movies performed poorly at the box office. The actions and behaviour of the three killers were studied by academics in the criminal psychology field, and the rulings set by the courts became local case studies for diminished responsibility.

Adrian Lim

Born on 6 January 1942, Adrian Lim was the eldest son of a middle class family.[18] Described at the trial by his sister as a hot-tempered boy,[19] he dropped out of secondary school and worked a short stint as an informant for the Internal Security Department, joining the cable radio company Rediffusion Singapore in 1962. For three years, he installed and serviced Rediffusion sets as an electrician before being promoted to bill collector.[18] In April 1967, Lim married his childhood sweetheart with whom he had two children. He converted to Catholicism for his marriage.[20] Lim and his family lived in rented rooms until his 1970 purchase of a three-room flat—a seventh floor unit (unit number 467F) of Block 12, Toa Payoh.[20]
Lim started part-time practice as a spirit medium in 1973. He rented a room where he attended to the women—most of whom were bargirls, dance hostesses, and prostitutes—introduced to him by his landlord.[21] Lim's customers also included superstitious men and elderly females, whom he cheated only of cash.[22] He had learned the trade from a bomoh called "Uncle Willie" and prayed to gods of various religions despite his Catholic baptism. The Indian goddess Kali and "Phragann",[fn 1] which Lim described as a Siamese sex god,[23] were among the spiritual entities he called on in his rituals.[24] Lim deceived his clients with several confidence tricks; his most effective gimmick, known as the "needles and egg" trick, duped many to believe that he had supernatural abilities. After blackening needles with soot from a burning candle, Lim carefully inserted them into a raw egg and sealed the hole with powder. In his rituals, he passed the egg several times over his client while chanting and asked her to crack open the egg. Unaware that the egg had been tampered with, the client would be convinced by the sight of the black needles that evil spirits were harassing her.[25]
Lim particularly preyed on gullible girls who had deep personal problems. He promised them that he could solve their woes and increase their beauty through a ritual massage. After Lim and his client had stripped, he would knead her body—including her genitals—with Phragann's idol and have sex with her.[26] Lim's treatments also included an electro-shock therapy based on that used on mental patients. After placing his client's feet in a tub of water and attaching wires to her temples, Lim passed electricity through her.[27] The shocks, he assured her, would cure headaches and drive away evil spirits.[28]

I agree. This Dukun A.S murdered at least 42 women. All in the name of religion.

 

[Raiders]

How the fish did he murdered so many women over such a long period of time and

1. Move the corpse to the sugarcane fields and buried them without anyone noticing.
2. No one raise the alarm after do many women in that area disappear year after year.

I remembered a case in Sydney whereby a Chinese family was brutally murdered. The whole family were so brutally killed and mutilated that police officers attending to that case had to be counselled. The case is about 2-3 years ago.!

Adrian Lim is considered a cult classic murderer. I read a book on him when I was a schoolboy. He is a master manipulator. Can convince women to sleep with him, kill for him and even have 3some.

viet triad killings are the worst. children and women not spared. used to be chinese triads, but they now resort to targetted hits by professional killers. amateur killers who joined the gang as lowly extortionists can be the worst killers as they don't know how to stop butchering once they get started. in the u.s., title of asian mass murderer goes to the korean student who gunned down dozens at virginia tech. at least koreans use automatic weapons to make up for their total lack of confidence. they've gone high tech.

In April 1967, Lim married his childhood sweetheart with whom he had two children.

[mollusk]

I thought kempetai were the most terrible murderers....In Asia..

 

[groober2011]

I thought the Cambodian killing fields was one of the worst crimes in Asia.

 

[Raiders]

I thought the Cambodian killing fields was one of the worst crimes in Asia.

Yes, but the person who ordered it did not do the physical killing. Same for the kempatai. We are talking about the single person who carried out the physical murdering itself
