学者质询吉宝岸外贿赂案进展   维护调查完整性当局不便置评

本地学者沙塔尔(Sattar Bawany)教授,投稿英语媒体《今日报》,质询政府公开有关新加坡吉宝岸外与海事公司(Singapore’s Keppel Offshore)贿赂丑闻的调查。

2018年,时任律政部兼财政部高级政务部长的英兰妮,曾表示我国总检察署和贪污调查局已着手调查。但碍于贿赂行为发生在2001年、证据和证人也散布海外多国,当局只能“尽可能迅速行动”。

从英兰妮在国会的答复,距今已有三年之久,似乎仍不见有任何更新消息。“遗憾的是,此案玷污了建国总理李光耀等先贤建立的低贪腐的声誉,拉低我们的国际贪污感知指数。”

沙塔尔认为,此案也显示有必要加强打击贪腐的法律,更好地阻止海外贪污行为。

贪污调查局不便置评

不过,根据贪污调查局透过企业关系助理总监Shawn Chew在昨日(27日)发文回应,指出尽管理解学者的关注,不过为了保护调查的完整,当局仍不便发表评论或更新调查进展。

调查本质上是机密的,这么做也是为了避免影响将来可能进行的提控。

贪污调查局也声称,本地的贪腐情况仍受稳定控制,过去五年当局收到的贪腐犯罪行为举报也有减少趋势。当局也重申续坚决打击贪腐且毫不犹豫将犯罪者绳之以法。

吉宝岸外贿赂丑闻轰动一时

2017年,吉宝企业与其美国子公司被发现涉贿赂罪,同意向美国、巴西和新加坡当局支付超过4.22亿美元(约5.67亿新元)的刑事罚款。

总检察署认为吉宝企业以合法咨询协议的名义,向中间人支付巨款。中间人之后把钱转交给巴西国家石油公司等官员,让他们从中受利。

新加坡吉宝岸外与海事公司美国分公司的前代理寇尼基(Zwi Skornicki),对过去十年间,对涉及向巴西官员与巴西石油公司进行达5千500万美元的贿赂认罪。
