SINGAPORE - A company director lied to police after pirates hijacked a tanker his firm had chartered - because he did not want the authorities to know that it was carrying 2,000 metric tonnes of crude oil which had been purchased illegally.

The court heard that Lau called the bunker clerk of Prosperbiz Petroleum Lim Puay Kwang, 41, asking him to lie to Malaysian authorities and say that the pirates had hijacked MT Joaquim while it was sailing towards Langkawi to deliver cargo to a firm called Siam Gulf Petroleum. In reality, MT Joaquim was on its way back to Singapore.

Lau gave the false information to Station Inspector Sivaprakash Damohdaran at Central Police Division the next day, while Hoe and Chew lied to the PCG later that month.
