The 61-year-old agreed to the corrupt conspiracy as he felt his company might not have a chance of getting jobs from Keppel FELS otherwise.

SINGAPORE: When approached by a man who offered to introduce his company to Keppel FELS for jobs in exchange for"commissions" or"referral fees", the director of a crane company agreed.

The court heard that Fatkullah was the managing director of Growa , a company in the business of distributing hoists and cranes and providing services including the servicing of such equipment. Fatkullah was asked if he was interested to have his company Growa recommended to Keppel FELS as a prospective vendor for crane inspection services.

After this, Raj told Goh to tell Fatkullah to mark up Growa's invoices to Keppel FELS by 50 per cent, but Fatkullah said he could only arrange for a mark-up of between 40 per cent and 50 per cent depending on the cost of the job.
