SCDF's ex-director claims trial to misappropriating two iPads

[YanDao]

The former director of the technology department at the Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) went on trial on Monday for misappropriating two Apple iPads entrusted to him in 2011.

Jeganathan Ramasamy, 63, is accused of giving an iPad 2 with a cover to his daughter and selling the other in September 2011 when he was with SCDF. Each cost about $940.

In the prosecution's opening statement, Deputy Public Prosecutor Hon Yi said the iPads were provided to the SCDF by IT firm NCS for the SCDF to test mobile applications that NCS was to develop and launch for the organisation.

In the agreed statement of facts, it was stated that Jeganathan sold the iPad 2 to his colleague, Mr Eric Yap Wee Teck, who was then senior director for emergency services, for $200. Commissioner Yap, 45, was appointed SCDF chief from February 2012
