Difference in treatment between Prof Tey and Bernard Lim

Due to the brilliant CSI work by HWZ forummers, NParks officer Bernard Lim, who was in-charge of the government tender for Brompton bicycles, was shown to be suspiciously connected to the suppliers who eventually won the bid. After NParks' internal audit found discrepancies, Bernard was suspended from duty and the case referred to CPIB.

However, in another case, despite being arrested called up CPIB in April and subsequently arrested, Prof Tey Tsun Hang from NUS Law School, continued to work and teach on-campus until the current academic term ended.

He is now out on bail and his profile can still be seen on NUS Law School, Asia's Global Law School. No discipline action has been taken by NUS and the Prof is even going for his sabbatical leave next month possibly on his full salary. This is a stark difference as compared to the treatment given to Bernard Lim.

Prof Tey is being accused of giving good grades to a student in exchange for sexual favours. It is unsure if Prof Tey only received oral sex like ex-CNB Chief Ng Boon Gay or went the whole nine-yards with the student half his age. Sources close to the matter have informed that the student involved goes by the name of Darinne Ko.

Ms Ko was said to have confided in a friend about her relationship with Prof Tey and the improper conduct was later brought to the attention of CPIB. Meanwhile, despite being aware of the investigations into sexual impropriety between lecturer and student, NUS continues to let the Prof roam around campus.

Prof Ko, who does not look like he is in his 40s, is said to be gregarious, funny and popular with the students. He is a brilliant lawyer and law professor and was worked as a State Counsellor and District Judge prior to his appointment with NUS. It is unknown if the courts are reviewing the judgements passed by Tey when he was a district judge. Prof Tey is married to a Japanese wife and they have a child.
