SINGAPORE - Over the course of seven years, a technical officer with the national water agency PUB abused his position and duped his employer into approving purchase orders worth almost $2 million to companies he controlled.
It was reported that Mohamed Sa'ad had cheated the agency into awarding 718 contracts to three companies under his wife's name from 2005 to 2012, when his crimes came to light. "These cases illustrate the importance of investing in our people to sharpen their skills particularly in the areas of interview, financial investigation and digital forensics," said the CPIB.
In another case that concluded last year, a contractor and his subcontractor were jailed for giving an employee of a hotel establishment $300,000 as a reward for furthering their business interests in construction works at the hotel.
