SINGAPORE: A 43-year-old Singaporean has been charged with corruption.
Self-employed Hamzah Karim had acted as a coordinator, referring motor vehicle accident cases to law firms in order to file a claim with insurance companies.
In August 2006, the accused had allegedly arranged for learner bike rider Liyana Mohamed Noor to make a false accident report.
The female rider met the accused at Changi General Hospital while seeking treatment for an injury that she sustained during a practical test for her bike licence.
The accused said she could use her injury to make a false accident claim to make more money.
Sometime later, the accused introduced a male friend and instructed her to lie that she was riding pillon when Liyana and the male friend collided with a taxi.
If found guilty, Hamzah could face a maxmum penalty of S$100,000 fine and imprisonment of five years.
