Former SCDF and CNB chiefs arrested

She has committed perjury in the court of law. She should be charged as an example to others who do not take the law seriously.
She has claimed sexual harrassment, rape etc. Women like her who throw around words like that or to that effect in court without thinking of the heavy consequences on the man and his family needs to be punished. Despite whatever law Gay broke, to be also branded a rapist, molester etc if it did not happen is very unfair. -

EX-CNB CHIEF ON TRIAL
Prosecution throws up 3 scenarios of liaison
It says the pair had affair from 2009 to 2010, and that Sue lied in court

Three versions of the relationship between Ng Boon Gay and Ms Cecilia Sue were presented in court on Monday by the prosecution, as it sought to show that its key witness had been lying on the stand.
1. Ng and Ms Sue had been in an intimate sexual relationship from 2009 until the end of last year.
2. Ng and Ms Sue had been in a consensual sexual relationship from 2009 until September or October 2010.
3. The pair had never been in any intimate or sexual relationship.
Which was true?
The prosecution's stand is that Version 2 is the true scenario. The defence's arguments so far point to Version 1.
Ms Sue has vigorously maintained in court that it is Version 3 - even though statements she had given to graft investigators point to the contrary.
Deputy Public Prosecutor Tan Ken Hwee sketched out the three scenarios to Ms Sue after he made the shock move of applying to the court to disregard parts of her oral testimony and instead replace them with what she had said in five Corrupt Practices Investigation Bureau (CPIB) statements. He also asked to cross-examine her.
His move came towards the end of yesterday's proceedings, when he was re-examining Ms Sue after the defence lawyer had finished cross-examining her.
Ng, 46, the former director of the Central Narcotics Bureau, is said to have received gratification from IT manager Sue four times, in the form of oral sex, between July and December last year.
This was in exchange for using his influence to help her further the business interests of her former employers Hitachi Data Systems and Oracle.
It has been the prosecution's case that he had forced her to perform the acts. The defence's case is that the acts were performed in the context of a long-running intimate relationship.
But during four days of cross-examination, Ms Sue, 36, denied any sexual relationship with Ng. She said earlier statements she gave to investigators about being intimate with him were made because she was, among other things, tired, stressed and scared of Ng.
On Monday, the prosecution applied to the court to throw out that part of her oral testimony in which she denied intimacy with Ng. Instead, it wants to replace it with the version of events she had given in the five statements made to the CPIB recorded between Dec 20 last year and May 3 this year.
Defence counsel Tan Chee Meng objected strongly to the application, charging that it would be unfair to his client if allowed.
He applied for Ms Sue to leave the courtroom. He then argued that the prosecution should have asked Ms Sue the questions about her relationship with Ng during its turn at the start of her testimony, and not attempt to repair \"damage done to the case by seeking to treat Ms Sue as a hostile prosecution witness\".
A hostile witness is one who deviates from prior statements made to law enforcement officers and gives evidence favouring the accused person.

I pity Sue, while both did something suspiciously wrong, she got all the blames from public while some still believe Gay is innocent and he is always accompanied by his wife in the court’s hearings. I believe Gay might have hurt both women in the process, but there is no empathy and only blames.

I do not pity Sue, nor do I think Gay is innocent. It takes 2 hands to clap.
The way that I see it, her lies are to protect whatever alimony and child support she can get out of her husband becos that marriage is for sure - gone. We are prob talking about a large sum of money as her husb holds directorship in 6 companies. He is prob waiting for confirmation of adultery by no less than the court of law and he can walk away with his money intact and prob the child. Would any man still want to give his hard earned money to a wife who has made a fool of him in public ? I doubt so. Sue does not look like a stupid woman - I believe she has weighed the consequences of all her possible answers in court. The only thing probably saveable is that alimony and child support if she can confuse everyone and have the case thrown out. -
I don’t think she will be bothered whether she has the kid or not. If the husband has the custody better for her. She has one less thing to be responsible for. She just need to support herself. If she really think about her kid, she would have hold back her lust.

Anyway, I guess that's not how the WC works. Adultery has little bearing on the outcome of the amount.. Some men are known to pay a hefty sum of money even if it is clearly the women who strayed..
