Student charged with filming woman in shower expelled

NTU student charged with filming woman in shower expelled from university

A Nanyang Technological University (NTU) student charged with filming a woman in the shower has been expelled from the university.

Chinese national Han Shiyu, 17, is accused of intending to insult the modesty of a woman by filming her in the shower at NTU using his mobile phone.

In response to CNA's queries, a university spokesperson confirmed on Thursday (Dec 5) that Han had been an NTU student at the time of the incident, but was expelled with effect from October this year.

"The university takes a zero tolerance approach towards harassment and takes all cases of misconduct involving harassment seriously," said the spokesperson.

"Students who are found guilty of misconduct face disciplinary proceedings that include expulsion from the university."

The incident took place at NTU on Aug 12 this year, court documents showed.

Han is set to return to court later this month.

一名17岁南洋理工大学男生今年8月涉嫌在南大校园内,用手机偷拍女生洗澡,校方已在10月将他开除。

《海峡时报》报道,这名中国籍前南大生韩诗宇(译音)被指在8月12日晚上9时20分左右,使用手机录下一名20岁女生在洗澡的视频,面对侮辱女性尊严的控状。

被告于星期一(2日)在国家法院面控。

南大发言人回复《联合早报》时证实,被告已被开除。

发言人说,南大对骚扰行为采取零容忍态度,并严厉看待所有涉及骚扰的不当行为。

今年4月,新加坡国立大学一名女学生在宿舍被同校男生偷拍的事件,引起民众对大学处理这类性相关不当行为的程序,以及校园保安的关注。

南大当时回应本报询问时说,校方其实已在今年1月加强处理骚扰事件的程序与步骤。

校方在考虑事件经过、严重程度和求情因素后,会对学生采取适当的纪律行动,包括从宿舍除名、开除学籍、勒令停学一段时间、指示学生参加强制性辅导和其他改造活动等。事件也可能交由警方处理。

此外,南大也已在7月针对新生和主办迎新会的学生推出网上单元,提高学生对防止骚扰的意识。

校方是在去年底展开检讨工作,探讨如何更有效地处理这类事件,为受害学生提供支援等。
