The High Court, in a test case, has dismissed a woman's bid to use WhatsApp messages from her former husband before he died to support her claim that he had wanted all his Central Provident Fund (CPF) money to go to their two sons.
Justice Valerie Thean made clear the CPF Act prescribed that a member's funds must be bequeathed through nominations or distributed via intestacy laws.
