📅 Incident Background

 

- Time: Between 12:30am and 2:20am, Mar 8, 2022

- Location: Grass field under Tuas Viaduct, near Tuas West Road MRT station

- Victim: A 32-year-old Singaporean woman, heavily intoxicated and incoherent

 

🚇 How It Unfolded

 

1. On the train: Foysal and Rayhan boarded an East-West Line train heading to Tuas Link. They spotted the victim in an adjacent carriage—she was unsteady, sitting on the floor, muttering, and unresponsive to questions.

2. At the station: When the train reached Tuas West Road, they followed her out. She struggled to tap out, drawing MRT staff attention. The men claimed they had just met her. She tried to walk away but Foysal guided her toward an exit.

3. At the field: They took her to the secluded grass patch under the viaduct. Both knew she was too drunk to give consent. Foysal made her lie down, kissed her, then raped her without a condom. Rayhan attempted to rape her but stopped after repeated failures. The pair then left by taxi.

4. Discovery: Hours later, a cyclist found the victim curled up, partially undressed, with head injuries. He called for help; she was taken to hospital conscious, with medical signs of sexual assault.
