SINGAPORE - A former Islamic Religious Council of Singapore employee was charged on Friday after he allegedly cheated Temasek Foundation International of nearly $785,000.
The company states on its website: “We are a one-stop provider to assist partners in establishing 21st century schools.” Razak is accused of falsely portraying that ITL was then affiliated with Madrasah Irsyad Zuhri Al-Islamiah in Toa Payoh. In a statement on Friday, a spokesman for the Islamic religious council said: “Muis takes such issues very seriously and continually takes steps to strengthen governance in our religious institutions...Muis is unable to comment further as the matter is now before the courts.”The case made the headlines in June 2021 when Madrasah Irsyad filed a police report after discovering that confidential files were leaked in an e-mail to unauthorised third parties.
