SINGAPORE — Property tycoon Ong Beng Seng has been granted permission to leave Singapore amid ongoing court proceedings which saw him handed two charges earlier in the month.

Ong Beng Seng was charged on Oct 4 with abetting a public servant in obtaining gifts and with abetting the obstruction of justice.

During his trip, he must also remain contactable by the investigation officer, and he is also not allowed to travel with his bailor. According to court documents, the businessman allegedly instigated Iswaran to obtain a valuable item in December 2022 by offering the then minister a trip from Singapore to Doha.Ong also arranged a one-night stay in Four Seasons Hotel Doha with a value of $4,737.63; and a business class flight from Doha to Singapore, valued at $5,700, for Iswaran.

Iswaran was the chairman of the F1 steering committee and the chief negotiator with Singapore GP on business matters related to the race.The two men had worked in the mid-2000s to convince then Formula One Group chief executive Bernie Ecclestone to make Singapore the venue for the sport's first night race.
