SINGAPORE: Former Central Narcotics Bureau chief Ng

sexual favours from a woman, who was a sales manager of two IT
vendors.
He allegedly had oral sex with Cecilia Sue Siew Nang on four
occasions, between June and December 2011.
In exchange, he would further the business interests of the two IT
companies, Hitachi Data Systems and Oracle Corporation Singapore,
in their dealings with the CNB.
Ng pleaded not guilty to all four charges.
He is represented by Senior Counsel Tan Chee Meng and Ms Melanie Ho
from WongPartnership.
He is out on a S$10,000 bail and will be back in court on June
26.
The Corrupt Practices Investigations Bureau arrested 45-year-old Ng
Boon Gay on December 19, 2011 under the Prevention of Corruption
Act. The government scholar was suspended on January 25, pending
disciplinary proceedings.
