“As such, NUS had to wait for the completion of the court proceedings to gather the facts of the case. We will now move to close this case as quickly as we can.” For voluntarily causing hurt to his ex-girlfriend, second-year dentistry student, Yin Zi Qin, was sentenced on Friday to a short detention order for 12 days, 80 hours of community service and a day reporting order for five months.

Students for a Safer NUS, a student-run group directly supported by the university’s victim care unit, also took to its social media accounts on Monday to highlight the issue. It added that survivors of such assault might avoid seeking help under the impression that the case “will not be regarded with proper consideration and empathy”.In May last year, Yin strangled the 21-year-old victim after she refused to reconcile with him, following the end of their two-year relationship.
