Re: Names & Pics of the Wife & Daughter of Guilty FT M'sian Law Professor Tey Tsun Ha
TEY SENTENCED TO FIVE MONTHS IN JAIL
Tey 'tricked' Ko, was not truthful
Referring in turn to the specific gifts Ko gave to Tey, Tan progressively showed that they were not all necessarily given completely out of free will on Ko's part. He said Tey lied to Ko by telling her he had misplaced his fountain pen, leading her to purchase the Mont Blanc pen for him as a replacement, when he later said he had never lost it.
Turning to a lavish dinner held for seven of Tey's graduating students whom Ko did not personally know, Tan said Tey had slipped Ko the bill "without so much as a word", making her feel obligated to pay for it. Tan also noted Tey had made no mention of reimbursing Ko for the dinner until she asked about it some six months later, where he then promptly paid her $1,000.
When Tey visited Ko in the U.S. during her exchange in Duke University, he also made her pay for his expenses and meals while there, claiming he "did not have that much money", and when Ko discovered while there that she was pregnant with Tey's baby, he instructed her to "get rid of it" and said he had no money to send her for her abortion, which she eventually forked out about US$2,000 for.
All this, said Tan, happened to Ko, a student with no income who had to shorten her exchange period by half when her family fell into financial difficulty, while Tey was earning an annual salary of more than $225,000 at NUS.
Supporters in court
Tey, who faces a jail term of up to five years and a maximum fine of S$100,000 on each charge, kept his head down throughout the verdict. When it ended, he seemed to be on the verge of tears as he embraced and kissed the cheeks of several people seated on the left side of the public gallery.
