A 36-year-old Uber driver Isyam Rahmat from Singapore was jailed for sexually assaulting a 15-year-old girl.

According to the Deputy Public Prosecutor James Chew, the victim ran away from her home on January 19 and waited for a taxi when Isyam drove by. He stopped seeing the girl waving for a lift and asked her where she wanted to go. She said she wanted to go to Downtown East in nearby Pasir Ris Close. But, as they drove by, she said that she would get down at entertainment hub. 

Isyam understood that she had run away from home so he offered her a meal. He then asked the girl to hang out. When she agreed, he called up his friend to ask about hotels that did not need customers' identity cards to check in.

He took the girl to a multi-storey carpark and started misbehaving with her. She disapproved of this and ran away from there. After spending a night in a lonely void apartment she called up Isyam. 

An hour later he picked her up. He was accompanied by one of his friends named Jamalludin Abdullah. After having dinner they drove to different places. Around 4 am they reached Jamalludin's home in Punggol Central. Then both Jamalludin and Isyam rapped her.

Deputy Public Prosecutor James Chew said, " The girl ran away from home on Jan 19 because of a family feud and was waiting for a taxi in Elias Road in Pasir Ris that evening when Isyam drove by."
