Ler Teck Siang is on trial for submitting his blood for a blood test that his HIV-positive boyfriend was taking.

SINGAPORE - A Singaporean doctor is on trial for allegedly helping his HIV-positive foreign boyfriend cheat the Ministry of Manpower (MOM) when the American submitted the doctor's blood for tests instead of his own in March 2008 to obtain an employment pass.

Ler Teck Siang, now 36, is said to have committed a similar offence in November 2013 by helping Mikhy Farrera-Brochez, 32, one more time. The American submitted Ler's blood for another test, duping MOM into allowing him to retain his employment pass.

In 2008, Farrera-Brochez moved to Singapore a year after he got into a romantic relationship with Ler. The pair had met online.


Besides these two charges of cheating MOM, Ler is also accused of two counts of giving false information to public servants.

On Dec 10, 2013, Ler allegedly lied to an investigation officer from the Health Ministry's Surveillance and Enforcement Branch by claiming that a person whom Ler knew as Dr Mikhy Malatesta Brochez was at Twin City Medical Centre in November that year.

Court papers do not state if Dr Brochez is the same person as Farrera-Brochez.

In addition, Ler is believed to have lied to a police investigation officer on Jan 23, 2014, by stating that Farrera-Brochez's blood sample was the one which had been used for an HIV test in November 2013.

Ler has a fifth charge under the Official Secrets Act but this has been stood down.

On March 1 this year, Farrera-Brochez, who worked as a polytechnic lecturer in Singapore, was jailed for 28 months after committing multiple offences, including cheating, lying to a public servant, possessing drugs and using forged educational certificates.

If convicted of cheating, Ler can be jailed for up to 10 years and fined for each charge.

And if convicted of lying to a public servant, he can be jailed for up to a year and fined up to $5,000 for each charge.

SINGAPORE - A district court heard on Friday (Sept 22) that convicted drug abuser Yeoh Kim Koon had started consuming methamphetamine or Ice about three months before he met Fridae.com founder Stuart Koe Chi Yeow in July last year.

But when cross-examined by defence lawyer Sunil Sudheesan, investigating officer Inspector Parthiban Mathevanan testified that he was unable to establish the source of Yeoh's drugs prior to meeting Koe, who founded the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender news and social networking site in 2000.

On the second day of Koe's drug trafficking trial, Insp Parthiban added: "(Yeoh) didn't reveal any information on the people he got the meth from. He only told me about the accused...I can't confirm if (Yeoh) was covering up for someone."


Yeoh is also known as Eric and had worked as a Chanel beauty adviser in VivoCity.

The Malaysian, who is currently serving a 16-month jail sentence after pleading guilty on May 31 to drug-related offences, had testified on Thursday that he had bought drugs from Koe, now 45, multiple times.

On Friday, Mr Sudheesan said Koe denies this accusation and read out a statement his client gave the Central Narcotics Bureau on Sept 22, last year on the day of his arrest.

According to the statement, Koe, who is also the managing director of local pharmaceutical firm ICM Pharma, had said: "I have never sold any controlled substance to any individual including Eric Yeoh Kim Koon ever and vigorously reject and deny such charge."

Koe is on trial for one count of drug trafficking. He allegedly sold Yeoh, who used to be his sexual partner, one packet of crystalline substance containing 0.17g of Ice for $240 on Aug 25 last year.

Koe is accused of committing the offence in his Spottiswoode Park Road home at around 7.30pm that day. He has five other drug-related charges against him for offences including methamphetamine consumption and possession. They have been stood down and will be dealt with at a later date.

Deputy Public Prosecutor Wong Woon Kwong had told the court on Thursday that Yeoh was arrested in his Compassvale Street flat at around 7.20am on Sept 15 last year. Koe was arrested a week later.

Yeoh also told District Judge Olivia Low on Thursday that he had consumed Ice with "Internet friends" he made on Facebook and gay dating app Grindr.

But when queried by Mr Sudheesan on Friday, Insp Parthiban said he could not remember checking Yeoh's Grindr chat history.

Koe is expected to take the stand when the trial resumes on Dec 18.

If convicted of drug trafficking, he can be jailed for between five and 20 years.

He can also receive between five and 15 strokes of the cane.
