Two foreign students, both 20, met, fell in love and broke up.
However, Sri Lankan Mohamed Ansar Mohamed Azeem could not get over
it and posted revealing pictures of his ex-girlfriend on Facebook
and called her a slut.
Under the law, this is criminal intimidation and, on Monday, he
was fined $2,000. He was fined another $20,000 for having 287
obscene films stored in his laptop.
The ex-student of the Singapore Institute of Management admitted
to threatening to injure the reputation of his ex-girlfriend with
his homemade video.
He had taken the photographs with her consent during their
relationship. After the break-up, he weaved these images into a
video clip on his laptop and uploaded it on Facebook at 8am on Sept
28, 2010, with a title that included her name and the words 'slut
in Singapore'.
