Muhammad ‘Aizat Khalis Daud paid $150 for the sexual services of a teenage girl who told him that she was 21 years old when in reality, she was only 16.
He was sentenced to seven weeks’ jail after he pleaded guilty to one count of engaging the sexual services of a person below 18 years old.
Khalis was the second man who had engaged the girl’s services to be dealt with in court.
SINGAPORE – A man paid $150 for the sexual services of a teenage girl who told him that she was 21 years old. In reality, she was only 16.
Muhammad ‘Aizat Khalis Daud, 38, did not take any steps to verify her age and later tried but failed to sexually penetrate her.
On Oct 6, he was sentenced to seven weeks’ jail after he pleaded guilty to one count of engaging the sexual services of a person below 18 years old.
Khalis was the second man to be dealt with in court for engaging the girl’s services
The first man, Syahirul Daud Abdul Razak, 26, was sentenced to four weeks’ jail in September.
They were among eight men who were charged in August with engaging the girl’s services.
The cases involving the other six men are still pending.
Deputy Public Prosecutor Lu Huiyi told the court that in early 2024, Khalis saw a message advertising sexual services in a Telegram group.
He contacted the unnamed sender of the message and agreed to pay $150 for such services.
Around Feb 14 that year, he met the girl at the void deck of a Geylang Bahru block of flats, and she told him that she was 21 years old.
He later transferred $150 via PayNow to a phone number she provided, and they entered a rented car at around 12.45pm.
Khalis drove to an undisclosed secluded place, where he parked the car and tried but failed to have protected sex with her.
Court documents did not disclose how his offence came to light, but he was arrested on Sept 12, 2024.
On Oct 6, the DPP urged the court to sentence Khalis to between eight and nine weeks’ jail, stressing that he is about 20 years older than the girl.
“The accused had only asked for the victim’s age and then took her answer at face value without further verification,” she added.
Defence lawyer Kevin Liew from Gloria James-Civetta & Co had pleaded for Khalis to be given between four and six weeks’ jail, adding that his client had asked the girl for her age.
He also said that there was “no penetrative sexual conduct” in the case.
Khalis’ bail has been set at $15,000, and he is expected to begin serving his sentence on Nov 10.

穆罕默德·艾扎特·哈利斯·达乌德支付了 150 美元，购买了一名少女的性服务。该少女告诉他自己 21 岁，但实际上她只有 16 岁。
他承认一项与未满 18 岁的人发生性关系的罪名，被判处七周监禁。
哈利斯是第二个因雇用该女孩而被送上法庭的人。
新加坡——一名男子支付了150美元，与一名自称21岁的少女发生性关系。但实际上，她只有16岁。
38 岁的 Muhammad 'Aizat Khalis Daud 没有采取任何措施来核实她的年龄，后来试图对她进行性侵犯，但未能成功。
10 月 6 日，他承认一项与未满 18 岁的人发生性关系的罪名，被判处 7 周监禁。
哈利斯是第二个因雇用该女孩而被送上法庭的男子
第一名男子，26 岁的 Syahirul Daud Abdul Razak，于 9 月被判处 4 周监禁。
他们是八月份因嫖娼而被起诉的八名男子之一。
其他六名男子的案件仍在审理中。
副检察官卢慧仪告诉法庭，2024年初，哈利斯在一个 Telegram 群组中看到了一条提供性服务的广告信息。
他联系了这条匿名信息的发送者，并同意为此类服务支付 150 美元。
大约在当年 2 月 14 日，他在芽笼峇鲁一栋组屋的底层遇到了这名女孩，女孩告诉他她 21 岁。
后来，他通过 PayNow 向她提供的电话号码转账了 150 美元，他们在下午 12 点 45 分左右坐进了一辆租来的车。
哈利斯开车到了一个未公开的偏僻地方，把车停在那里，试图与她进行有保护的性行为，但没有成功。
法庭文件没有透露他的犯罪行为是如何被发现的，但他于 2024 年 9 月 12 日被捕。
10 月 6 日，检方敦促法庭判处哈利斯 8 至 9 周监禁，并强调他比受害女孩年长约 20 岁。
她补充说：“被告只询问了受害者的年龄，然后就轻信了她的回答，没有进行进一步核实。”
来自 Gloria James-Civetta & Co 律师事务所的辩护律师 Kevin Liew 请求判处 Khalis 四至六周监禁，并补充说他的当事人曾询问过女孩的年龄。
他还表示，此案中“没有发生性侵犯行为”。
哈利斯的保释金定为 15,000 美元，预计将于 11 月 10 日开始服刑。
