Adding details about Ng's latest employer]
Former narcotics chief Ng Boon Gay, who was recently retired from
the public service, will be starting as a consultant with local
security firm Certis Cisco in March.
A spokesperson for the firm told Yahoo
Singapore he will "help with various aspects of (Certis
Cisco's) security business" on a short term contract, without
specifying how long exactly it will be.
Late last month, the Public
Service Commission (PSC) announced its decision to retire
Ng, who was the former Central Narcotics Bureau (CNB) director
before he was charged and acquitted
of corruption between 2012 and last year.
“In response to media queries, the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA)
confirmed that following the conclusion of civil service
disciplinary proceedings, the Public Service Commission has decided
to retire Mr Ng Boon Gay in the public interest with effect from 29
Jan 2014,” a spokesperson from the MHA said that day.
Ng was charged
four counts of sex-related corruption in June 2012.
Earlier in 2011, he was accused of corruptly obtaining sexual
gratification from a female IT executive, Cecilia Sue Siew Nang, by
assisting to further the business interests of her then employers
Oracle Corporation Singapore and Hitachi Data Systems in dealings
with the bureau.
His sexual trysts -- all in the form of fellatio -- with Sue
allegedly occurred on four different occasions between June and
December 2011.
The MHA had charged him with “serious personal misconduct” and
suspended him, pending the outcome of the ministry’s
proceedings.
Ng’s trial was one of a string of high-profile corruption cases
that shook Singapore in 2012. During the same year, the former
Singapore Civil Defence Force commissioner Peter
Lim was also taken into questioning for sex-related
corruption. Lim was found guilty and was given a six-month
jail term.
