Crime | Boutique owner charged with underage sex

A 30-year-old man has been charged with having sexual intercourse with a 14-year-old girl, the Judiciary Police (PJ) reported.

The PJ told a special press conference that the suspect, surnamed Loi, owns a clothing boutique.

In early July, the girl came across Loi on the Internet. According to what she told the police, she had made it clear to Loi that she was a minor receiving secondary education. Their initial communication was conducted over text messages.

At approximately 10 p.m. last Tuesday, Loi invited the girl out for a drink. He picked up the girl from her residence in Coloane and drove to a bar in Cotai, where they had drinks until the girl felt drunk and unwell. The girl then asked Loi to drive her back to her place.

On the way back, the girl requested Loi pull up on the side of the road so she could rest.

Meanwhile, out of worry for his daughter, the father headed to the street to look for her. While passing the car, the father noticed his daughter being intimate with the man, and he intercepted by yelling at them.

The man drove away but was later caught by the Public Security Police, who had been notified by the father.
