SINGAPORE – A muay thai instructor is accused of sexually assaulting a woman whom he was “massaging” after she attended a trial class at the gym he co-founded.
On the pretext of offering the 33-year-old woman a free “Thai massage”, Tan Wai Luen got her to strip to her underwear and lie on a massage table, where he sexually assaulted her, prosecution told a district court on Wednesday (Nov 13), at the close of Tan’s trial.
Tan, 30, faces one charge of sexual assault by penetration.
He has flatly denied sexually assaulting the woman throughout the trial.
The woman, who cannot be named to protect her identity, had earlier testified to attending a free trial class at Encore Muay Thai on Oct 1, 2016, after she saw an advertisement on Facebook.
Tan was the instructor for her class, which was attended by three other women whom she did not know.
The woman was left alone with Tan after the class when the other three left, and he sat her down to discuss gym packages, said Deputy Public Prosecutor (DPP) Kavita Uthrapathy in her closing submissions.
