16-year-old boy arrested for raping girl, 13, after friend who acted as lookout told psychologistNadine ChuaThe Straits TimesSep 30, 2025A 16-year-old boy has pleaded guilty to raping a girl when she was 13 at a carpark with his friend, while another stood by to keep a lookout. When the friend hesitated to rape the girl as he was afraid it would hurt, the boy demonstrated to him how to do it. On Sept 1, 2023, the boy, identified as B1 in court documents, was with his friends and the girl at a playground in Petir Road where they drank alcohol. He told one of his friends to keep a lookout for the police while he and the other boy committed various sexual acts on the girl. His acts came to light only in January 2024 when the friend who was asked to keep watch told a psychologist about what had happened.
