TYCOON Lim Oon Kuin, founder of oil trader Hin Leong Trading, on Friday found himself facing another charge of instigating a worker to commit forgery.
He stands accused of instigating an employee of Hin Leong to create an e-mail on Feb 26 with the subject "CAO - Sale of Gasoil 10PPM Sulphur/[S9797G]", and making it look like it was sent from the oil trader to China Aviation Oil (Singapore) Corp.
The electronic record was allegedly used for the purpose of cheating, said the charge. But it did not state whom the e-mail was used to dupe.
