SINGAPORE - A father and son duo who were directors of a freight forwarding company became involved in a corrupt arrangement after the company was unable to fulfil a contract.
His son, Kenneth Tan Kwang Leng, 45, was sentenced to two months' jail, also on Monday, after he pleaded guilty to six similar charges. As part of the contract, IG Aviation was required to sell 146 tonnes of cargo space each month and it would profit by charging a mark-up on the space sold to customers who wished to ship items via Raya Airways.
In return, Mr Shashitheren would consider IG Aviation's cargo sales performance over a period of three to six months instead of on a monthly basis, meaning shortfall in certain months could be offset from other months.
