SINGAPORE – Police are investigating certain matters raised in a report by the Law Society of Singapore’s (LawSoc) audit committee, the society informed its members in an e-mail update on Sept 21.
The e-mail, which The Straits Times has seen, added that the police also told LawSoc not to further publish or distribute the contents of the report or comment on these matters, pending the conclusion of police investigations.
The audit committee’s report detailed its findings on matters that allegedly occurred in the society between 2022 and 2025, including inappropriate workplace conduct, weaknesses in governance and oversight, deficiencies in grievance handling and whistleblowing processes, and shortcomings in internal controls over certain administrative and financial practices.
This latest update comes a month after the society told members on Aug 20 that it would release the full report after a redaction process to honour the promise of confidentiality to the interviewees.
The police confirmed that a report was lodged and they are looking into the matter.
LawSoc said it has no comment at this time.
