Lee Hsien Yang, Lee Suet Fern 'essentially absconded': Shanmugam on reasons couple were named in police probe · Law enforcement agencies don't disclose names of ...

Minister of Law and Home Affairs K Shanmugam addressed questions over naming Lee Hsien Yang & his wife under investigations.

They had been found to be dishonest, and more,” Mr Shanmugam said. The same applies here to both Mr Lee Hsien Yang and Mrs Lee Suet Fern, Mr Shanmugam said. “To summarise, the Disciplinary Tribunal and the Court of Three Judges had said Mr Lee Hsien Yang and Mrs Lee Suet Fern were lying. “As can be seen, there are a wide variety of situations where it may become necessary to make public the fact that a person is under investigation, or has been arrested, or is assisting in investigations.” The Law Society’s Disciplinary Tribunal and the Court of Three Judges had found Mrs Lee guilty of misleading and cheating Mr Lee Kuan Yew. The discussions surrounding Mr Lee Kuan Yew’s home, 38 Oxley Rd, are of significant public interest, Mr Shanmugam said.

Leong Mun Wai asked if there was an issue of "double standards" between the case of the Lees and the six officers who were investigated at Keppel Offshore ...

"Can I invite the Member to make clear is the member suggesting that there is a connection between the Bloomberg interview and the disclosure in Parliament? So will the minister like to clarify on the situation?" If anyone challenges us on that, I am prepared to debate, but the principle is the same. So I'm merely asking if the minister would like to take this opportunity to clarify." That debate for us is, I have explained the reasons why the answer was given. That is why I said the prejudice is very marginal, if any. So what's the prejudice?" "For the record, I have made it very clear why the disclosure here (of the Lees) is consistent with the disclosure in the Karl Liew's case and...I would also like to ask Mr Leong. "The investigation relates back to that very point on which the courts have taken a view as to whether they lied or didn't lie. So if you look at the facts relating to Mr Liew and the Lees, what has happened? Perhaps the Member can go into a little bit of detail, based on the explanation I've given on the differences, and tell us which part of the explanation he disagrees (with) before he alleges double standards." He repeated his first question about whether a written order was issued to the Lees.

Published: 20 March 2023. Questions: Mr Leong Mun Wai: To ask the Minister for Home Affairs why Mr Lee Hsien Yang and Ms Lim Suet Fern are named and ...

The Home Affairs and Law Minister was replying to parliamentary questions on why Lee Hsien Yang and his wife Lee Suet Fern were named while under ...

He asked her to withdraw the part of the question related to “chatter”. He said: “My recollection is that the Bloomberg interview came after the answer given by Senior Minister Teo and therefore even the prescience of this government could not have foretold that Mr Lee Hsien Yang was going to give such an interview. “To summarise, the Disciplinary Tribunal and the Court of Three Judges had said Mr Lee Hsien Yang and Mrs Lee Suet Fern were lying. And the same applied to the Lees, he said. But police will respond with the facts if there is a need to, for example, if questions are raised in Parliament.” In the case of the Lees, the discussions surrounding Mr Lee Kuan Yew’s home, No 38 Oxley Rd, are of significant public interest, said Mr Shanmugam. Editor’s note: A previous version of this article said that Mr Shanmugam asked Ms Poa to withdraw her question. He challenged any MPs who disagreed with this general principle to raise their reasons and debate the issue with him. He added that Liew cooperated with the investigation, and has since been charged. The couple was involved in a series of alleged cheating cases involving luxury goods, and had fled Singapore in 2022. The authorities will have to take into account many other factors. One example is where the offender has absconded or left the jurisdiction while investigations are ongoing.

SINGAPORE – The police did not issue an order compelling Mr Lee Hsien Yang and Mrs Lee Suet Fern to attend an interview, as the couple had appeared ...

The couple were handed a letter containing information about the investigation and a request that they attend the interview, said the police. On June 13, 2022, Mr and Mrs Lee contacted the police to say they would be available for an interview the following month on July 13. They agreed to speak to the police and said they would confirm the exact date later. In fact, they had agreed to the police interview and said they would give a date for it to happen, said the police in a statement on Monday (March 20). In its statement, the police said they had met Mr and Mrs Lee on June 9, 2022, to ask them to attend an interview over potential offences of giving false evidence. To this, Workers' Party and Aljunied GRC MP Sylvia Lim asked whether the police had issued an order under the CPC to Mr and Mrs Lee to attend the police interview.

Netizens responded that public interest was also a criterion for the Keppel O&M corruption scandal but asked why individuals were not named then.

Mr Leong from the Progress Singapore Party asked why Mr and Mrs Lee were named while “A disciplinary tribunal and the Court of Three Judges had said that Mr Lee Hsien Yang and Mrs Lee Suet Fern were lying. - When the facts relating to the alleged offences and the individuals who may have committed the alleged offences are already publicly known and there is some public interest in disclosing that investigations are underway
