Prostitute slept with him as she thought he was cop
He had posed as policeman and threatened to arrest her

She had just arrived from China to work as a prostitute in Geylang.
So, when a man who identified himself as a police officer approached her that night, she was scared.
The 31-year-old woman thought that if she had sex with him for free, he would not arrest her.
But it was only after she was caught by the police during an anti-vice operation the next day, that she realised she had been duped.
Last month, Tan Chin Heng, 41, who had posed as a police officer, was jailed for 13 months after being convicted of one charge each of impersonating a public servant and using criminal force.
The former kitchen helper is appealing against the sentence.
