While they were going through a bitter divorce, a woman hacked into her husband's laptop and used the information against him, the man has claimed.
And it was her own lawyers who recommended the hacker to her, it is alleged.
The man is suing both his estranged wife and her law firm for trespass and breach of confidence, in addition to the ongoing divorce proceedings.
High Court Justice Quentin Loh, in dealing with the case, was so concerned to learn of these allegations that he has asked the Attorney-General's Chambers (AGC) to probe.
