Jailed for lewd proposals

EX-TEACHER CHARGED WITH SEXUAL EXPLOITATION

PRIMARY school teacher, who tried to get two 13-year-old secondary school boys to join him and watch pornography and masturbate, was jailed for 10 months.

Chock Soon Seng, who pleaded guilty to two counts of attempted sexual exploitation of a child, is appealing against the sentence. He is out on $20,000 bail.

A district court heard on Thursday that Chock, 33, posing as a polytechnic student, got to know a Secondary One student in May 2009 over the Internet and exchanged mobile phone numbers. The following day, Chock got the boy to text him the telephone numbers of two friends.

Chock wasted no time messaging one of the boy's friends inviting him to come and see obscene films and masturbate together the very next day.

The victim told his mother and his parents reported the matter to the police. The mother and the son then met up with the boy's discipline master, who called Chock and arranged to meet him at a nearby neighbourhood police post that evening on May 7.

When confronted there, he admitted sending the lewd messages and apologised to the mothers. Investigations then revealed that Chock had done something similar to another 13-year-old boy attending another secondary school in 2008.
