A man in Singapore posed as his ex-girlfriend and shared her nude photos in a sex chat group with a religious theme, but was exposed when the victim caught wind of it and went undercover to investigate.

The victim, who was a teenager when she shared the photos with the culprit, was horrified to discover that the chat group contained many obscene images and videos of women clad in religious garb, including the tudung (headscarf). She filed a police report.

Abdul Marzuq Waliyuddin Abdul Majid, a 27-year-old man, was sentenced to two years and eight months’ jail and two strokes of the cane. He was also ordered to pay S$4,000 (US$3,084) as compensation to the victim, who wanted to end her life and whose mother distanced herself from her because of this incident.

According to a judgment made available on Thursday, Abdul met the victim in 2016, while they were in a religious school. Both were teenagers and he was two years older.

During their relationship, he persuaded the then-underage victim to exchange intimate photos and videos of themselves.

In 2017 or 2018, the victim broke up with Abdul as she felt he was possessive and toxic. She deleted any intimate footage she had of him and asked him to do the same.

Abdul said he had, but he kept them for his “viewing pleasure”.
