新加坡男子联手女友虐死19岁亲妹妹被判无期徒刑:受害人被锁在厕所、体重降至27.6公斤

新加坡—新加坡高等法院11月5日以谋杀罪判处34岁男子黄博灿无期徒刑。他与女友许美婉、屋主林炳忠长期虐待其19岁妹妹黄宝英,致其于2021年5月5日死亡。主审法官许德伦(Aidan Xu)判刑时未施鞭刑,刑期自2021年5月5日起算;黄博灿此前已认罪、未对谋杀指控提出抗辩,控辩双方均建议判处无期徒刑。
按高等法院判决书([2026] SGHC 232)与庭审披露的案情,黄宝英死于严重营养不良、败血症与大面积钝器创伤。她死亡时体重仅27.6公斤,较2020年6月最后一次记录的48.8公斤下降约43%。
案情显示,黄宝英当年为减肥与赚钱,与哥哥一同加入一家营养保健产品直销公司,许美婉(Chee Mei Wan,47岁)是两人的上线主管、也是黄博灿的女友,林炳忠(Lim Peng Tiong,67岁)是直销会员兼屋主。2021年2月中旬至5月4日间,三人以黄宝英直销工作表现欠佳为由,把她禁锢在金文泰西1街第602座组屋住所的厕所里反复殴打、断食;因她会离开厕所找食物,她被用铁链锁在马桶旁的栏杆上。检方形容这是一场骇人且毫无来由的折磨。法官指出,黄宝英原本敬重并信任兄长,相信他会照顾自己,却遭到极不人道的对待。
同案的林炳忠此前已承认非谋杀罪的误杀罪,今年5月25日被判监禁14年11个月;许美婉同样被控谋杀,其案件仍在审理中。
黄博灿的父母在判刑后受访时哽咽表示,儿子小时候很照顾妹妹,曾在日记里写下要像爱自己一样爱妹妹,他们为自己忙于工作、疏于陪伴感到悔恨。

Singapore Man Gets Life Sentence for Murdering 19-Year-Old Sister: Victim Was Chained in a Toilet and Weighed Just 27.6kg
SINGAPORE — Singapore's High Court on November 5 sentenced 34-year-old Huang Bocan to life imprisonment for murder. Together with his girlfriend Chee Mei Wan and flat owner Lim Peng Tiong, he abused his 19-year-old sister Huang Baoying over a long period, causing her death on May 5, 2021. Justice Aidan Xu imposed no caning, with the sentence backdated to May 5, 2021; Huang had pleaded guilty and did not contest the murder charge, and both prosecution and defence had submitted that life imprisonment should be imposed.
According to the High Court judgment ([2026] SGHC 232) and the facts presented in court, Huang Baoying died of severe malnutrition, sepsis and extensive blunt force trauma. She weighed only 27.6kg at her death, down about 43 per cent from the 48.8kg last recorded in June 2020.
The court heard that Baoying, then seeking to lose weight and earn money, joined a nutritional products direct-selling business together with her brother. Chee Mei Wan, 47, was their upline supervisor and Huang Bocan's girlfriend, while Lim Peng Tiong, 67, was a direct-selling member and the flat owner. From mid-February to May 4, 2021, the three confined her in the toilet of the flat at Block 602 Clementi West Street 1, repeatedly beating and starving her over what they said was her poor sales performance; after she left the toilet to look for food, she was chained to a railing beside the toilet bowl. Prosecutors described the abuse as horrifying and senseless torture. The judge noted that Baoying had looked up to and trusted her brother to care for her, yet was treated in cruel and inhuman ways.
Lim Peng Tiong earlier pleaded guilty to culpable homicide not amounting to murder and was sentenced on May 25 this year to 14 years and 11 months in jail. Chee Mei Wan has also been charged with murder and her case is still pending.
Speaking after the sentencing, the siblings' parents said through tears that Bocan had once cared deeply for his sister — he had written in a diary that he should love her as he loved himself — and that they regretted working long hours and spending too little time with their children.
