Ex-girlfriend wanted to "retake control" by having a threesome
The following day, Beatriz discovered Lim's messages with the victim and learnt that Lim had cheated on her.
Despite knowing the victim's age, Beatriz wanted to have sex with the victim together with Lim, instead of ending her relationship with him.
She believed it would help her "retake control" of her relationship with Lim and lessen the emotional impact of his infidelity.
In mid-June 2023, the couple arranged for the victim to be taken to Beatriz's home via a private-hire vehicle.
At home, the three engaged in various sexual acts, which Beatriz recorded in at least six videos.
She later sent those videos to the victim.
Following the incident, the couple attempted to contact the victim to engage in further sexual activity with her, but she blocked them the day after the threesome.
Deleted the videos
In July 2023, the victim's mother lodged a police report, stating that her daughter had been raped.
When police visited Beatriz’s apartment in August 2023, she deleted the videos from her phone before answering the door.
"Took advantage" of the victim
The prosecution sought 10 years' jail and 12 strokes of the cane for Lim, and eight-and-a-half years' jail for Beatriz, with three months in lieu of caning.
