TODAY takes a closer look at some other corruption cases involving former ministers:

TAN KIA GAN, FORMER MINISTER FOR NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT, 1966​

In August 1966, Tan, a former Minister for National Development, was investigated for attempting to help his close businessman friend Lim Tjin Hauw and his son William Lim clinch the sale of a Boeing aircraft to Malaysian Airways.
Tan, who was part of founding Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew’s first cabinet, also acted as an intermediary for his brother-in-law in the sale of a tin mine to Lim.
In return, he was given 70,000 shares worth S$1 (US$0.74) each.
Tan was charged and convicted over the Boeing episode, the current Law and Home Affairs Minister K Shanmugam said in a 2009 speech.
Archived Corrupt Practices Investigation Bureau (CPIB) records state: "As the witnesses did not want to implicate him then, Tan was administratively stripped of all his public appointments by the Government."
At the time of charging, Tan was no longer a minister, as he had lost his seat in the 1963 general election.

WEE TOON BOON, FORMER MINISTER OF STATE FOR THE ENVIRONMENT, 1975​

In April 1975, then Minister of State for the Environment Wee Toon Boon was charged with corruption involving S$839,023.
Investigations revealed that Wee was linked with millionaire and property developer Lauw Tjin Ho, who was the chairman of property firm Lauw and Sons.
Wee had used his power as a minister to make representations to civil servants on behalf of Lauw.
In return, he was rewarded with a bungalow worth S$532,000, galvanised roofing for his home worth S$3,500, free air tickets for him and his family to Indonesia and bank overdrafts totalling S$300,000 to speculate in shares.
Wee was convicted of corruption and sentenced to 4.5 years in jail and had to pay a penalty of around S$7,000.
His jail sentence was later reduced to 18 months after he successfully appealed against one of the five charges.

TEH CHEANG WAN, FORMER MINISTER FOR NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT, 1986​

In November 1986, the Corrupt Practices Investigation Bureau investigated then-Minister for National Development Teh Cheang Wan for allegedly accepting bribes.
Teh was accused of accepting two bribes of S$400,000 each in 1981 and 1982. He had held his ministerial role since 1979.
He was accused of accepting the bribes from two private companies - Hock Tat Development and Keck Seng - which he had allegedly helped to retain and buy a piece of state land for private development.
On Dec 14, 1986, Teh committed suicide at his home by overdosing on barbiturates, a sedative medication, before he could be formally charged in court for his offences.
He maintained that he was innocent up till his death.
