His two friends were sleeping in the same room, but that did not stop 23-year-old Lim Jia Yi from raping a woman. On Wednesday, the full-time national serviceman (NSF) was sent to jail for eight years and ordered to be caned eight strokes, with the prosecution highlighting the brazen way in which he raped the victim in the presence of others.

In 2011, Lim befriended the 23-year-old woman after meeting her at a pub. They kept in touch and met several times at the void deck of her flat. On the night of Jan 10 last year, she agreed to go out for drinks with Lim. They went pub crawling with Lim's friend, Mr Larry Ng, and Mr Ng's girlfriend until the wee hours.

Lim then took the woman to a flat in Yishun where Mr Ng shared one of three bedrooms with another friend, Mr George Tan. At the time, Mr Tan was already sleeping on the lower deck of a double-decker bed. Mr Ng took out a mattress for Lim and the woman, then went to sleep on the upper deck. Lim raped the woman on the mattress, ignoring her cries for him to stop. Mr Tan was awoken by her screams and witnessed the rape. But he did not help her.

After her ordeal, the victim went to the toilet, locked the door, smashed a window and screamed for help. Another tenant in the unit heard the screams and alerted Mr Tan and Mr Ng. Mr Tan forced open the toilet door, then told Lim and the victim to leave.

The woman called the police. Lim, who faced up to 20 years in jail, pleaded guilty to rape.

Yishun rape case: Woman's screams woke neighbour up

SINGAPORE - IT WAS 5.30am when she was roused from her sleep by the sound of breaking glass and someone screaming.

It came from above her bedroom window on the 10th storey of a Yishun HDB block. Miss Amanda Wang, 20, took a peek outside and was surprised to see a pair of hands reaching out from the bathroom window a floor above her flat.

A woman was pleading for help, the Nanyang Polytechnic student told The New Paper on Wednesday while recounting the incident that occurred on Jan 11 last year.

The woman screamed from above: "Help! I've been kidnapped. Please call the police."

Miss Wang said: "I told the woman to wait while I called the police, but she kept smashing the windows as if to gain attention from the neighbours.

"I tried to calm her down, but she sounded frantic. Not knowing what else to do, I woke my parents up and told them what I had heard."

Concerned for the safety of the elderly woman who lives above their unit, Miss Wang's parents, who are in their 50s, rushed upstairs. Just as they reached the unit, the front door opened and a woman ran past them.

"When my parents got to the unit, they saw bloodstains in the flat," Miss Wang said. Thinking it was a lover's tiff, her parents returned to their flat.

"After my parents came home, I looked out of the window again to see if the woman was downstairs.

True enough, she was at the carpark waiting for the police," she said. "It was only a month later that I learnt from neighbours that someone had been raped in the flat."

When TNP went to the flat where the rape was committed, a maid answered the door.

She said the flat belonged to the grandmother of Mr George Tan, the rapist Lim Jia Yi's friend, and that he was not home as he was staying with his girlfriend.

Before TNP could ask her about the incident, the maid, who declined to be named, went inside the flat.
