SINGAPORE: Singapore’s transport minister has resigned his post after being charged with 27 offences in a corruption probe that has also ensnared a billionaire hotel tycoon.
S. Iswaran was arrested in July 2023 and released on bail in connection with a rare top-level graft investigation in the city-state.
Iswaran, 61, said he would plead not guilty to the charges filed by the powerful Corrupt Practices Investigation Bureau when he appeared in court on Thursday.
