Corruption cases fall to 68 in 2025, lowest on record: CPIB report

Last year, 90 people were prosecuted in court for offences investigated by CPIB. Of these, 84 were private sector individuals, while the remaining six were public sector employees.

The six public sector employees were from the National Environment Agency (NEA), the Singapore Armed Forces, the Singapore Civil Defence Force, the Singapore Prison Service, St Anthony’s Canossian Secondary School and St Joseph’s Institution.

“Based on the cases of private sector employees prosecuted in court for corruption-related offences over the past 10 years, construction, manufacturing, transportation and storage were the main industries vulnerable to corruption,” said CPIB.

Last year, 22 cases involved public sector employees who rejected bribes – they were officers from the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority, the Land Transport Authority, NEA, the Singapore Police Force and an officer from Certis Cisco Aviation Security who was performing a public function.
