39—year—old Ganesan Maniam, who was a staff sergeant attached to the Secret Society Branch, allegedly took S$6,000 in loans from pub owner Andrew Rajendran Govindasamy in 2003.

In exchange for the loans, the nightspot operator was told he would be let off the hook should the authorities raid the two pubs belonging to him.

Ganesan looked calm when the three charges were read out to him.

He said that he intends to engage a lawyer.

The case will be mentioned next on January 13.

Ganesan is now out on a S$10,000 bail. His passport has also been impounded.

If convicted of corruption, Ganesan could be fined up to S$100,000, jailed a maximum of five years, or both.

For neglect of duty, he could be fined up to S$1,000, jailed for up to six months, or both. — CNA/vm
