Malaysian gets 12 years’ jail in Singapore for Caucasian ‘sugar daddy’ sextortion scam
Rajwant Singh Gill Narajan Singh was sentenced to 12 years in jail for pretending to be a rich white man and coercing women into sex
The man, Rajwant Singh Gill Narajan Singh, was convicted of two counts of cheating and one count each of extortion and attempted extortion involving two victims, identified in court documents as PW1 and PW2.
“By his horrific and perverse conduct, purely intended to satisfy both his sexual and material desires, the accused has callously and irreparably damaged the lives of his victims,” Deputy Public Prosecutor Jeremy Bin told the court, as quoted by The Straits Times.
Court accounts reported that Gill adopted multiple online personas, including “Mike” and other names, portraying himself as a white man with a lavish lifestyle and offering large monthly sums in return for sex and companionship.
The women were pressured into sending lewd photos or videos, then invited to Malaysia, where Gill allegedly appeared in person as the “sugar daddy’s” driver, using that role to gauge whether to cultivate sympathy or resort to threats relayed through the fictional benefactor.
One victim handed over more than S$183,000 (US$142,000), according to court reporting, after being threatened that explicit videos would be shared unless she transferred money, continued engaging with him sexually and complied with further instructions designed to maintain his control over her.
Gill was arrested in a joint covert operation involving the Singapore Police Force and the Royal Malaysian Police Force, and was convicted in November.
