9 years' jail, caning sought for ex-SAF regular who restrained and molested 2 underaged girls

The prosecution is seeking nine years’ jail and seven strokes of the cane for a former Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) regular who targetted and molested two young girls at HDB flats. Mohamed Ardlee Iriandee Mohamed Sanip, 40, had researched primary school operating hours and how to grab his victims from behind before putting his plan into action on the girls, whom he restrained on separate occasions at staircase landings. Ardlee had been deemed by the defence’s psychiatrist to be suffering from stress-related anxiety and depression at the time of the offences, said Muzammil.
