To get two men out of run-ins with the law in 2015, a director of a balloon company gave his colleague $4,000 to bribe officers from the police and Immigration and Checkpoints Authority (ICA). Goh Siong Kiat, now 60, was sentenced to three months’ jail on Wednesday

Deputy Public Prosecutor Thiagesh Sukumaran said in court documents that Lam told the other two men during the meeting that he could not help Pua because there was closed-circuit television footage that showed Pua’s role in the fight.In another incident in 2015, a secret society headman asked for Goh’s help in a case involving Mr Ng Thiam Teck who was being investigated by ICA for various offences.

DPP Thiagesh said that when Lim told Goh about the outcome of the case, Goh assumed he had sought assistance from an ICA officer in getting Ng a warning. He then asked Lim whether his ICA contact required anything. Lim told Goh his contact had asked for a sum of $3,000. “In truth, Lim had lied to the accused and had not sought assistance from any ICA officer, and did not know anyone in the ICA,” the DPP added.

In March 2016, Goh transferred $3,000 to a bank account belonging to Lim who used it for his own expenses.
