‘Inherent power imbalance’: Former Singapore Idol judge Ken Lim gets 13 months’ jail for molest

Former Singapore Idol judge and veteran music producer Ken Lim was sentenced to 13 months’ jail on Tuesday (18 Nov) for molesting a 25-year-old woman at the Hype Records office in 2021.

Lim, 61, was convicted in September after a full trial. Principal District Judge Lee Lit Cheng ruled that the woman was a truthful witness, while Lim was “untruthful” in denying the allegations.

It is the second of five sex-related trials Lim is facing.
