Once the chief judge on reality Singapore singing competition Idol, Ken Lim Chih Chiang was on Thursday made to stand before a district judge after he was accused of molestation.
Lim, the executive director of record label Hype Records, is said to have molested a 25-year-old woman by touching her breast via skin-to-skin contact.
The alleged incident happened on Nov 23, 2021, at the Hype Records office in Henderson Road.
Deputy Public Prosecutor Chong Kee En asked for a gag order on the identity of the victim.
Lim turned up at the State Courts at about 8am, dressed in a black Tshirt and donning a mask.
As the charge was read out to him at about 9.25am, the 58-yearold kept his gaze firmly on the bench, his face still behind the grey mask.
Lim, who was represented by Mr Navin Naidu, partner at Dentons Rodyk & Davidson, was accompanied by his wife, former recording artiste Judy Hsu. The couple have two sons.
