    IN THE first case before the Singapore courts associated with scandal-hit German payments company Wirecard, Singaporean R. Shanmugaratnam has been slapped with four charges of falsifying letters that stated bogus balances held in his company's accounts.

    The 54-year-old was described by The Financial Times as having "controlled" Citadelle Corporate Services - one of two companies into which the Singapore authorities have launched a joint probe.
