SINGAPORE: A former Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) captain was charged on Monday (Nov 10) with cheating multiple people into giving him a total of S$145,250 (US$111,500).
Benjamin Song Yong Pang allegedly deceived the victims into believing the money would be used either for investments or to pay his mother’s medical bills, said the Corrupt Practices Investigation Bureau (CPIB) in a press release.
The 37-year-old, who was an SAF regular at the time of the alleged offences, instead used the money to service his debts and expenses, said the bureau.
