A Filipino vacationer has been sentenced to six weeks behind bars in Singapore for secretly recording women in public, with his arrest coming after bystanders intervened at a train station.
Court documents identified the man as Usi Christian Jior Orlino, 27, who was visiting the city-state with his girlfriend when the offenses took place. He was charged with six counts of voyeurism and admitted guilt to three, while the remaining charges would be “to be taken into consideration by the judge during sentencing.”
The episode that led to his capture unfolded at Outram Park station. According to charge sheets obtained by Singaporean outlet AsiaOne, Orlino noticed a woman in a black dress, photographed her, and recorded footage beneath her legs without her knowledge. Two commuters who witnessed what he was doing detained him and turned him over to station personnel. Officers who responded found the recordings stored on his device and took him into custody at the scene.
Investigators determined that the train station encounter was one of several that day. The documents stated that Orlino “filmed six different women in under three hours” on Nov. 6, 2025. The majority of those recordings, five in total, were made at Chinatown Point, with the sixth captured at the station.
One of the Chinatown Point incidents occurred inside a cafe, where the tourist positioned his phone beneath the skirt of a woman in a blue dress and filmed for 33 seconds.
During the proceedings, prosecutors asked the court to impose a six-week jail term. His defense lawyers sought a lighter penalty, citing that this was his first brush with the law and that the recordings were all made within a single day.
