Oxley Road: Conflict of interest accusations unfounded, says SMS Indranee
[SINGAPORE] Concerns about conflict of interest involving the Attorney-General's Office were unfounded, said Senior Minister of State for Law and Finance Indranee Rajah in Parliament on Monday (July 3).
Mr Lee Kuan Yew's younger children, Mr Lee Hsien Yang and Dr Lee Wei Ling, had singled out Attorney-General Lucien Wong in their online posts about the Oxley Road dispute, highlighting that he was the personal lawyer of their brother, Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong, and had attained his position in January this year (2017).
