Former executive fined for forging cheques
SINGAPORE: A former executive has been fined S$10,000 for forging cheques amounting to more than S$75,000.
Thirty-three-year-old Kenneth Anthony Chan had been tasked with preparing cheques for paying Brussels Sprouts' suppliers and reimbursing petty cash payments.
In November 2012, Chan committed forgery by fraudulently signing a bank cheque worth S$75,000.
The payee was Royal Equipment. As a result, Brussels Sprouts ended up paying Royal Equipment the amount.
Chan had faced 15 similar offences and the total amount involved was more than S$90,000.
However, the prosecution did not proceed on those charges.
On this offence, Chan could have been jailed up to four years and fined.
