Eight Singapore public officers referred to police over MRT property buys
Original: police
Eight public officers in Singapore have been referred to the police over property purchases made near MRT stations before new lines were publicly announced. Education Minister Chan Chun Sing disclosed the referrals, which follow scrutiny of whether officials exploited insider knowledge of upcoming transport projects. The case has drawn wide attention locally and is also trending in France and Australia.
Why now: A minister's disclosure that officials may have used advance knowledge of unannounced MRT plans for personal property gain is a serious potential abuse-of-office case.
