OK Lim's daughter hauled to court for allegedly telling staff to ensure deleted data cannot be recovered
THE crisis deepened for the family of Singapore's fallen oil legend Lim Oon Kuin of the Hin Leong empire as his daughter became the latest to feel the brunt of the city-state's regulators.
Lim Huey Ching, 54, director of collapsed giant oil trader Hin Leong Trading (HLT), was charged in the State Courts with one count of obstructing the course of justice.
The Singapore police, in a statement, said investigations by the Commercial Affairs Department into Hin Leong revealed that around April 13 last year, Lim Huey Ching had allegedly instructed a Hin Leong employee to ensure that deleted items from the company's computer servers could not be recovered, and to permanently dispose of previous backups of information on the servers.
