SINGAPORE - Between October 2012 and February last year, a serial paedophile committed 27 sexual offences on five boys aged between 7 and 11.

Lok Kwok, 59, befriended his victims, who were all students at the primary school near his home in Bukit Batok, and lured them into his flat with promises of computer games and television. There, the logistics officer would offer them gifts including toys and money to get them to hug and kiss him, touch his private parts and perform oral sex on him - even taking photographs and video recordings of the acts to keep for his "own sexual enjoyment".

On Monday, prosecutors called for Lok, who earlier pleaded guilty to seven charges under the Children and Young Persons Act and one charge under the Penal Code, to be jailed for at least 12 years.

He will be sentenced on Nov 3. The maximum penalty for sexually penetrating someone aged under 14 years is a jail term of 20 years, fine and caning. For each count of committing an indecent act with a child, Lok faces up to five years in jail and a fine of up to $10,000.

SINGAPORE - A serial paedophile was sentenced to 12 years in prison on Monday for 27 sexual offences he had committed in 2012 and last year on five primary school boys, in a case of sexual exploitation that the court called "heinous" and "abhorrent".

Lok Kwok, 59, lured the boys into his Bukit Batok flat with promises of computer games and television. Over four months, he got them to touch or kiss him, had a seven-year-old perform oral sex on him, and took photographs and videos as keepsakes.

To keep them happy, he gave them gifts including a toy gun, game cards and a red packet containing cash.

Lok was caught after a school counsellor made a police report. He was sentenced after pleading guilty to seven charges under the Children and Young Persons Act and one under the Penal Code, with 19 other various offences taken into consideration.
