Parliament not correct forum for Oxley Road allegations: Hsien Yang

PARLIAMENT is not the correct forum to look into allegations surfaced in the Oxley Road dispute, said Mr Lee Hsien Yang, adding that he has "no confidence that a fair, transparent or complete account of events will be told".

The younger brother of Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong took to Facebook again on Thursday, this time to voice "serious concerns" about PM Lee delivering a ministerial statement in Parliament on July 3 to refute his siblings' charges. "Only his side of the story will air, with no promise of truthfulness due to parliamentary privilege," Mr Lee Hsien Yang said. "Indeed, it could also be an opportunity to continue to mislead or insinuate under this privilege."

Mr Lee Hsien Yang and his sister, Dr Lee Wei Ling, are feuding with PM Lee over the fate of their later father's house at 38, Oxley Road. The dispute erupted into the public sphere on June 14 when the siblings issued a six-page statement with numerous allegations, including PM Lee abusing his power and using a ministerial committee to harass them over the house.
