SINGAPORE - A 67-year-old man and a 31-year-old woman employed by him have been arrested for tricking national water agency PUB into giving their company permits to operate boats in reservoirs.
It was then required to send their boats to be involved in this for inspection by PUB's appointed marine survey companies and submit the inspection certificates to get the permits from PUB to operate the vessels in the reservoirs. Police investigations found that the man encouraged the woman to forge the inspection certificates and submit them to PUB on 183 occasions between 2012 and 2017 to trick PUB into issuing the permits for the vessels.
