[h=2]TITLE: Ex-SCDF chief Peter Lim gets 6 months' jail[/h] By Claire Huang and Kimberly Spykerman

The former commissioner of the Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) Peter Lim was sentenced to six months' jail on Thursday.SINGAPORE: The former commissioner of the Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) Peter Lim was sentenced to six months' jail on Thursday.

Lim, 53, was convicted on 31 May on one charge of corruptly obtaining a sexual favour from 49-year-old Pang Chor Mui, a general manager at Nimrod Engineering, in May 2010.

In return, he tipped her off about SCDF's need for walkthrough radiation portal monitors before the tender was made public in April 2011.

Lim also admitted on 7 June to seven other corruption charges involving two other women -- Ms Lee Wei Hoon of Singapore Radiation Centre and Ms Esther Goh Tok Mui of NCS.
The district judge took these seven charges into consideration during sentencing. For the remaining two charges, Lim was given a discharge amounting to an acquittal.
District Judge Hamidah Ibrahim noted during sentencing that Lim had contributed to not just the SCDF but also the wider society.
Another mitigating factor was that Lim was cooperative during investigations.
The judge however said she agreed with the prosecution that there were several aggravating factors in the case.
These include Lim's actions - which led to the oral sex - being pre-meditated, him bringing "embarrassment to the public service", and his actions resulting in a "loss of reputation to the SCDF", among other factors.
The judge stressed that Lim was the highest ranking officer in the SCDF and "was expected to lead by example and display unimpeachable conduct". She also found it "totally unacceptable" that he brought disrepute to the office he held.
A custodial sentence is warranted considering the "vast amount of public disquiet" the case generated, the judge added.
The defence previously argued that Mdm Pang was not coerced into giving Lim oral sex.
The judge however disagreed, saying that Mdm Pang would not have wanted to jeopardise the relations between Nimrod and the SCDF.
On the point that Lim did not tamper with the agency's procurement process, the judge said the integrity of the system has been questioned as a result of the case.
She highlighted that Lim's actions "undermined the integrity of the government procurement process" and tarnished its image.
Just before she handed Lim his sentence, the judge emphasised that every misdemeanour a public servant commits, especially a high ranking officer, has the effect of lowering, in the eyes of the public, the standing of the institution he serves.
This "casts a negative light on the public service as a whole" and is something she cannot ignore.
The six-month sentence was stiffer than the prosecution's request for a five-month jail term.

During the 20 minutes that the district judge addressed the court, Lim sat hunched in the dock, rubbing his temples and sighing heavily. His lawyer Hamidul Haq told reporters that they have filed an appeal against the sentence, saying it is "excessive" and "disappointing".
The maximum penalty for corruption is five years' jail and a fine of up to S$100,000 on each charge.
Lim left the Subordinate Courts just before 12:30pm on a S$15,000 bail, with his lawyer saying Lim's bailor is a "relative".
Separately, the Ministry of Home Affairs said in a statement that civil service disciplinary proceedings will be held in abeyance pending Lim's appeal.
The ministry's spokesman added that "the Ministry of Home Affairs expects Home Team officers to uphold the highest standards of duty, conduct and integrity at all times.

"We have always upheld the principle that none of our officers - no matter how senior - is above the law."

[h=1]Court finds Ng Boon Gay not guilty of corruption[/h][h=2][/h]
By Joyce Lim And Tham Yuen-c

<!--start of story text-->Former chief of Central Narcotics Bureau (CNB), Ng Boon Gay, 46, was found not guilty on Thursday afternoon of obtaining oral sex from Ms Cecilia Sue, in exchange for business favours.
In the closing submissions last month, Ng's lawyer, senior counsel Tan Chee Meng, had sought to show that prosecution had not proven its case beyond a reasonable doubt.
But lead prosecutor Tan Ken Hwee had argued that the onus was on Ng, to prove that he is not corrupt under the Prevention of Corruption Act, as Ng was a top civil servant with the power to influence decisions that could favour Ms Sue.
Ten witnesses, including Ms Sue, testified in the closely-watched sex-for-contracts trial after Ng was charged in June last year. Ng could have been jailed up to five years and fine of up to $100,000 for each of his four charges.

[h=1]Sex-for-grades trial: 5 months' jail for former law professor Tey Tsun Hang[/h][h=2][/h]
By Walter Sim And Bryna Singh

<!--start of story text-->Former law professor Tey Tsun Hang was sentenced to five months jail by Chief District Judge Tan Siong Thye on Monday.
Tey sat stone-faced as his sentence was read out by the judge. He was later led away in handcuffs to the Subordinate Courts lock-up, but is expected to be released on bail - which has been raised to $150,000 from $100,000 - later in the day.
He told The Straits Times before the start of proceedings earlier that he had been "distressed" by the court's judgment and plans to appeal against his sentence.
Tey was found guilty last Wednesday on all six counts of corruptly obtaining sex and gifts - a Mont Blanc pen, an iPod, two tailored shirts, and dinner at Garibaldi Italian Restaurant & Bar - from his former student Darinne Ko. He was also ordered to pay a fine of $514.80, which is the value of the two tailored shirts and part of the cost of the dinner Ms Ko paid for - and to have the pen and iPod forfeited.

Money 1, Power 0, Sex 4[h=2]Founder of Ren Ci Hospital, Ming Yi released under Home Detention Scheme[/h] August 28th, 2010 | Author: Online Press

The founder of Ren Ci Hospital, Ming Yi, was released from Selerang Park Community Supervision Centre yesterday after serving about 3 months of his jail term under Home Detention Scheme whereby at least for the next one month, he will have to wear an electronic monitoring device around his ankle and must observe a curfew.
Goh Kah Heng aka Ming Yi

According to the Singapore Prison Service, Ming Yi, 48, whose real name is Goh Kah Heng, was placed on the Home Detention Scheme “as he met the criteria and was assessed to be suitable”.
This scheme allows eligible offenders of non-serious crimes to serve the tail-end of their sentences at home but would have had to meet certain criteria including a minimum imprisonment sentence of four weeks, good conduct in prison and strong family support, said a spokeswoman.
A spokesman from Ren Ci Hospital and Medicare Centre told MediaCorp that there are no plans for him to rejoin Ren Ci or its board.
Last October, the Buddhist monk and his former aide, Raymond Yeung, were found guilty on charges that included falsifying accounts and misappropriating funds, after an unauthorised loan of $50,000 was made from the charity’s coffers in 2004.
In May this year, Ming Yi’s 10-month sentence was reduced to six months following an appeal.

[h=2]TITLE: Trial involving City Harvest Church leaders to begin in May[/h] By Leong Wai Kit

Judge appointed for trial involving six City Harvest Church leaders; trial to start in May
SINGAPORE - A judge has been appointed for the trial involving leaders of City Harvest Church.

District Judge See Kee Oon will preside over the trial that is set for 15 to 23 May, which was decided during a closed-door pre-trial conference held on Friday.
Six City Harvest Church leaders, including its founder Senior Pastor Kong Hee, are charged with misusing church funds.

The others are Serina Wee Gek Yin, Chew Eng Han, Sharon Tan, Tan Ye Peng and John Lam.

The six leaders are accused of conspiring to cheat the church of millions of dollars.

They allegedly channelled some S$24 million into sham bond investments, and misappropriated some S$26 million to cover up the first sum.

The money was allegedly used to boost the music career of Kong Hee's wife, Sun Ho.

Channel NewsAsia understands that defence lawyers for the six Church leaders had on Friday tried to postpone the trial dates, although the reason for this was not disclosed.

Channel NewsAsia understands the prosecution "strongly objected" to the postponement of trial dates.

After hearing from the lawyers from both sides, District Judge Victor Yeo decided that the trial dates should remain unchanged.

It is understood this is because the case has been going on for almost a year, and it is in the public's interest that the trial is not postponed.

Channel NewsAsia also understands that during a closed-door session held on 15 December 2012, the prosecution had already provided the defence counsel with court documents to facilitate the preparation of an agreed statement of facts for the trial.

A final closed-door session will be held on 23 April before the trial begins.

[h=1]Glenn Knight[/h]From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jump to: navigation, search
Glenn Jeyasingam Knight (born in 1945) is a Singaporean lawyer. He was the first Director of the Commercial Affairs Department (CAD)[SUP][1][/SUP] when it was founded in 1984.[SUP][2][/SUP] He lost his post in 1991 after being convicted of corruption in a much-publicised trial.[SUP][3][/SUP] In 1998, he was again tried and convicted for misappropriating money while in office.[SUP][4][/SUP]
Knight is married to Pathmavali Rengayah. The couple have no children.[SUP][3][/SUP]
[h=2]Background [edit][/h]Knight was a student of Anglo-Chinese School. In the 1990s, he was the vice-chairman of its Old Boys' Association[SUP][5][/SUP] and a member of its board of governors.[SUP][6][/SUP] He studied in the University of Singapore in the 1960s, and played the guitar in a jazz band to raise money for his tuition fees.[SUP][3][/SUP][SUP][7][/SUP]
He joined the Singapore Legal Service in 1970 and rose through the ranks "with the speed and power of an Exocet missile," as Queen's Counsel Roy Allaway later described it. Soon he acquired a reputation for being a law enforcer who prosecuted criminals without fear or favour. News of his ability and integrity impressed the late David Marshall, so much that when he retired he offered to give Knight a full partnership in his law firm; however, Knight was content to remain in the Legal Service and declined the offer.[SUP][8][/SUP]
[h=2]Notable cases [edit][/h]In 1978, Knight was the deputy public prosecutor in the trial of former magistrate Khoo Hin Hiong. In 1983, he acted for the Prosecution again in the trial of Adrian Lim, who had murdered two children.[SUP][8][/SUP] In 1985, he was the senior state counsel and deputy public prosecutor who filed an affidavit on behalf of the Attorney-General requesting that the High Court cite five defendants for contempt of court over an editorial published in the Asian Wall Street Journal (AWSJ) on 17 October 1985. Titled "Jeyaretnam's Challenge", the editorial had questioned the "integrity and impartiality" of Singapore's judicial system. The affidavit led to an apology from the editor of the AWSJ.[SUP][9][/SUP] In 1986, he was the public prosecutor for the Commercial Affairs Investigation Department[SUP][10][/SUP] who filed charges against key people in Pan Electric Industries ("Pan-El"), such as Tan Kok Liang,[SUP][10][/SUP][SUP][11][/SUP] Tan Koon Swan,[SUP][12][/SUP] and Peter Tham,[SUP][13][/SUP] in the aftermath of the company's collapse. For his role in the Pan-El investigations, Knight was commended by then-Finance Minister Richard Hu in 1989.[SUP][14][/SUP] Knight also led the prosecution team in Singapore's first case of insider trading, that of former United Overseas Bank banker Allan Ng.[SUP][15][/SUP][SUP][16][/SUP] On National Day 1990 (9 August 1990), he was awarded the Public Administration Medal, Gold, for his work as Director of the Commercial Affairs Department.[SUP][17][/SUP]
[h=2]First investigation and trial [edit][/h]On 23 March 1991, Knight was suddenly replaced as CAD director by Senior State Counsel Lawrence Ang in a decision that shocked the local legal community.[SUP][2][/SUP] It turned out that Knight was under investigation by the Corrupt Practices Investigation Bureau (CPIB).[SUP][18][/SUP][SUP][19][/SUP] After an investigation lasting more than two months—one of the longest probes into the conduct of a public servant in Singapore—Knight was arrested on 27 May 1991[SUP][20][/SUP][SUP][21][/SUP] and charged with corruption the next day. He was the first Singapore legal officer to face such charges.[SUP][22][/SUP] Specifically, he was accused of cheating three businessmen into investing S$3,000,000 each into the former Batam Island Country Club on the Indonesian island of Batam, as well as giving false information to the CPIB regarding vehicle purchases, an application for a car loan, and his corporate investments.[SUP][23][/SUP][SUP][24][/SUP][SUP][25][/SUP] The judge originally set Knight's trial to commence in October 1992, but changed his mind and brought it forward to September 1991 after the prosecution complained that its witnesses had been subject to intimidation, and investigating officers had received mysterious phone calls warning them to "watch out".[SUP][26][/SUP][SUP][27][/SUP] In July that year, his wife and two others were also arrested and charged over the Batam resort investments.[SUP][28][/SUP][SUP][29][/SUP][SUP][30][/SUP]
In a district court on 29 September 1991, Knight pleaded guilty to cheating then managing director of Trans-Island Bus Services Ng Ser Miang to try to make him invest in the Batam resort project, which had been planned by Knight and his wife.[SUP][31][/SUP] In October, he was sentenced to three months in prison.[SUP][32][/SUP][SUP][33][/SUP][SUP][34][/SUP][SUP][35][/SUP]
Knight appealed against the sentence, and in March 1992 he managed to get his sentence reduced to a $17,000 fine and a day in prison.[SUP][36][/SUP] He served the jail sentence and paid the fine on the day it was announced.[SUP][37][/SUP] In deciding to reduce the sentence, High Court Judge L.P. Thean said that a "nominal custodial sentence" was sufficient given the mitigating circumstances in Knight's case.[SUP][38][/SUP] In April, all charges against his wife in relation to his case were also dropped.[SUP][39][/SUP]
[h=2]Aftermath of first conviction [edit][/h]Although the sentence meted to him was eventually reduced, the corruption case had left permanent damage on Knight's career as a civil servant. After investigations on him began in March 1991, he faced disciplinary hearings and his services were terminated on 26 March 1992.[SUP][40][/SUP] The President also revoked the prestigious Public Administration Medal, Gold, that had been awarded to Knight.[SUP][41][/SUP] In August 1994, the High Court struck Knight off the roll of advocates and solicitors, meaning that he could no longer practise law.[SUP][42][/SUP] After being disbarred, Knight worked as a consultant in a public-listed company.[SUP][43][/SUP]
[h=2]Second investigation and trial [edit][/h]In 1998, Knight was again charged in court—this time with criminal breach of trust by misappropriating money totalling $4,200 when still the CAD's Director on two occasions, in 1989 and 1990.[SUP][44][/SUP][SUP][45][/SUP] This second charge caused Knight to resign from his job.[SUP][43][/SUP]
During the trial, the defence argued that the proceedings were invalid as Knight had been granted immunity by the Attorney-General's Chambers in 1991 from further charges arising from his corruption investigations, in exchange for him to plead guilty in the earlier trial. They argued that the latest set of charges stemmed from that investigation and thus were subject to the immunity clause.[SUP][46][/SUP][SUP][47][/SUP] The CPIB revealed that it had been tipped off about the misappropriation of money only in 1997 by an unnamed informant.[SUP][48][/SUP] The court ruled that the proceedings could continue because the 1991 probe into Knight's dealings did not investigate his misappropriation of money.[SUP][49][/SUP] Eventually the court found him guilty of two charges of misappropriation and sentenced him to a $10,000 fine and another day in jail.[SUP][4][/SUP]

[h=1]Howard Shaw begins jail term for sex with underaged prostitute[/h][h=2][/h]
By Elena Chong

<!--start of story text-->HOWARD Shaw, sentenced to 12 weeks in jail for paying for sex with an underage prostitute, reported to the Subordinate Courts on Friday to begin his jail term.
The 41-year-old was accompanied by his wife, Ms Jessie Xue when he surrendered to the court at about 11.20am.
Speaking to reporters, Shaw said he felt "nervous".
It was reported two weeks ago that Shaw, had decided not to appeal against his sentence, although he had successfully applied to defer his jail term.
When asked on Friday why he had withdrew his appeal, he said there was "no particular reason" and it was his own decision.
The grandson of Runme Shaw, founder of Shaw Organisation that owns the Shaw cinema chain, was one of 51 men charged in an online vice case that involved an underage Singaporean prostitute.
Shaw paid the girl - who was 17 years old then, but now above 18 - $500 for the tryst, and was charged under section 376B of the Penal Code for commercial sex with a minor.
He was sentenced on July 30 to 12 weeks in jail after he pleaded guilty to having sex with the girl once in October 2010. He had earlier asked for a conditional discharge or a fine for the offence but it was not granted.
His lawyer, Senior Counsel Harpreet Singh Nehal, had argued then that he had made an "honest and reasonable" mistake, and was deceived about the girl's age by her profile on a social escort website.
But in his written grounds of decision, Senior District Judge See Kee Oon, who meted out the sentence, said that Shaw had been "reckless" when he did not make any effort to check or verify the minor's age.
He also questioned if Shaw was truly remorseful because he had maintained he was "blameless" despite pleading guilty.
Eleven of the 51 men implicated in the case, including Shaw have been sentenced to jail sentences of between nine and 13 weeks.
Last week, Republic of Singapore Navy captain Chan Wei Kiat, 27, became the eleventh man to be jailed for paid sex with the prostitute. He was given 11 week's jail for paying $500 for the 17-year-old's services at Hotel 81 in Lavender Street in 2010.
