LEGAL TINGS | A PODCAST ABOUT ALL THINGS LAW AND LEGAL.

Facing False Rape Accusations? Here`s What You Need to Know:

If you did not experience any sexual encounter with your accuser, gather solid evidence to prove your innocence.
If there was consensual sex, focus on demonstrating the lack of consent.
On top of that, make sure to gather evidence. Use alibis, document interactions, and maintain credible testimony.
Alternatively, opting for a plea bargain or trial is possible. Make sure to weigh your options carefully with your lawyer`s guidance.

In Singapore, laws like the Children and Young Persons Act (CYPA) and Penal Code Section 376E are crucial for safeguarding minors. CYPA shields them from obscene acts, while Section 376E targets adults who groom minors for sexual offenses.

Let`s explore the case of Lee Seow Peng, where an individual`s online conversations with a minor led to legal consequences, highlighting the seriousness of online safety.

With smartphones exposing youth to potential exploitation, both young individuals and parents need to understand and address these risks proactively.

Harassed or Stalked? Here is what you should do.

Non-physical offences, such as verbal abuse or lewd comments, fall under the Protection from Harassment Act (POHA). For instance, if someone loudly discusses their sexual desires towards a colleague at work, this is considered workplace sexual harassment.

More severe forms of harassment, like molestation or rape, are handled under the Penal Code. For example, molestation cases are addressed under Section 354 of the Penal Code.

Unlawful stalking is also a crime under POHA. This includes actions like following someone, sending unwanted messages, or loitering near their home or workplace.

If you`re being harassed, you can seek a protection order from the court. This order can stop the harasser from continuing their behaviour or contacting you. It can also require the parties to attend counselling or mediation.

Know your rights and take action to protect yourself. The law is on your side to ensure your safety and well-being.
