Sherming Yiu received sexual harassment phone calls from youth

Sherming Yiu has been receiving numerous sexual harassment phone calls from a 17 years old Lin Chun Sing since Jan 25th this year. Some of the calls had a lot of moaning sound made by him, and sometimes, he asked if he could have sex with her. She tolerated the phone calls till Feb 24th before contacting the police. The police traced the call, and found that 11 calls were made from his mother's phone. Lin was arrested in April. He told the police that he was bored and wanted to have a bit of fun, that is why he did it.

Judge Ma Hon told him "You have an 18 year old sister, if someone does that to her, would you be angry? I don't understand your mentality, why did you call someone who is so much older than you?" Lin was nodding his head to show he understood . The lawyer pleaded on his behalf, stating that Lin knows his mistakes and he is willing to apologizes to Sherming. Even though Sherming had forgiven him through the media, the judge was not happy. He continued "You made those phone calls in the middle of the night and early mornings, your victim can't pretend nothing has happened. Although you are willing to apologize in court, have you thought about how she was feeling when you made those phone calls?"

Lin was sentenced to 100 hours community service. Sherming said she doesn't know whether it's a heavy sentence or not, but she respects the judge's decision. She reckoned if he really knows that he has done wrong and not to make the same mistakes again, she hope people will give him a chance since he is still very young.

Lin works as a delivery boy and in 2007 he was highly commented by the police department for handing in something he picked up on the road. He said Sherming has never done anything to him. He was just being playful and he regretted what he had done. At the moment, he is working and studying and hope he will be able to study abroad like his sister. Lin's parents promised they will look after him and go to church with him too.

Sherming Yiu was sexually harassed over the phone, reports to the police

Sherming Yiu Lok Yee who has a 34D cup chest received sexual harassment calls in January this year. A few days ago she went to the police station to make further statements and stated that she will definitely not tolerate it.

Sherming often wore bikini's to show off her outstanding figure. But due to this she became the pervert's target. It is said that in January this year Sherming received sexual harassment calls. The caller would constantly say things of sexual explicit content and even said he wanted to rape her.

Due to the incident being serious, Sherming reported the case at Hung Hom police station on February 26th. After investigations the police quickly indentified the suspects identity. The suspect is only 17 years old and works in the courier office in an accounting firm. While he was delivering documents to her house, he became obssessed with her and kept hold of her personal details.

Many Female artistes have encountered similar incidents

Last weekend Sherming was seen at the police station and seemed to have a lot on her mind. The reporter approached her and asked whether she was there to report about the sexual harassment case? At first she didn't really want to talk about it. But when mentioning about the pervert's actions she became very emotional and replied "In January I received constant sexual harassment calls. The caller would call day and night, saying things of sexual explicit content. Saying they love me and want to rape me. I really couldn't resist it anymore. Actually many female artistes have encountered similar incidents but are afraid that its too much hassle. But I feel that we should not tolerate and that their actions are known."

It is said that Sherming has kept a tape of the phone calls. The reporter asked if she will be using this as evidence? She said "It's not convenient for me to reveal too much. But that person knows my phone number, home and work address I am quite worried." Good friends Timmy Hung and Angela Tong both support her in reporting it to the police. Angela said "Actually I knew about this a long time ago. There was a time when we were having dinner and Sherming kept saying "Don't call me again" and appeared very angry."
