Sex-for-contracts trial resumes, without Cecilia Sue

The sex-for-contracts trial involving former-Central Narcotics Bureau (CNB) chief Ng Boon Gay resumed on Wednesday morning with Oracle Corporation global lead for justice and public safety Koh Hong Eng first to take the witness stand.

Mr Koh is set to shed more light on an SMS exchange between him and Ms Cecilia Sue, who apparently had asked him for advice on the contracts she was handling.

He was apparently also the one who contacted Ng about a trip to Macau in December 2011. The text messages between Mr Koh and Ms Sue, who said to have provided sexual favors to Ng, were read out in court.

Among them were discussions between the two about how to secure business from the CNB and Singapore Civil Defence Force, and the suitable software to offer these two Home Team agencies.
