SINGAPORE - A 38-year-old NSman, who took the Individual Physical Proficiency Test (IPPT) for another NSman and induced the Ministry of Defence (Mindef) to pay the latter a $400 incentive for getting the Gold award, was on Monday (Sept 13) jailed for two months.
Kho Puay Meng pleaded guilty to one charge of conspiring to cheat.
A district court heard that Kho was approached by NSman Lim Chun Chyi, 35, in 2014 to take IPPT on behalf of other NSmen, in return for a cut of the pay-outs given by Mindef for awards.
