Japanese upskirt offender in Singapore jailed

A JAPANESE national who captured six photographs of a woman's thighs and her underwear with his digital camera was jailed for one week on Wednesday.

Nakagoshi Yuta, 25, pleaded guilty to insulting the modesty of the 30-year-old woman at Dhoby Ghaut station on Nov 3 2010.

A court heard that the woman was travelling on the escalator at the station when she felt someone had brushed her on the thigh area.

She turned around and saw Nakagoshi, who walked past her and tried to flee.

She shouted at him to stop. Two men who heard the commotion managed to detain him.

Police came and seized his camera which contained several upskirt photos. Nakagoshi could have been jailed for up to one year and/or fined.
