SINGAPORE: An unemployed woman was referred by her Member of Parliament for an interview, which led to her securing a job at a Woodlands Residents' Committee . But she used her position to misappropriate residents' money and commit crime.

The MP, who was not named in court documents, then referred Sri Hawa for an interview, and she was subsequently hired by the RC for Woodlands Zone 1. She issued a cheque as instructed, but did not deposit the cash. Instead, she spent it on her own expenses. Sometime before July 2015, Sri Hawa came across a photocopy of a woman's identity card in the RC office. It belonged to a cleaner who worked under Sri Hawa at the office.

Sri Hawa's supervisor also discovered the discrepancies in the bank account and an internal audit was launched. He lodged a police report, and Sri Hawa was fired.
