Legal heavyweights Walter Woon and Tan Chee Meng are lined up on opposite sides in the disciplinary tribunal looking into any possible misconduct by Mrs Lee Suet Fern in preparing the last will of her late father-in-law and founding prime minister Lee Kuan Yew.
"My role as prosecuting counsel for LawSoc is to present the facts objectively, and the decision rests with the tribunal," said Mr Tan. Mr Lee Hsien Yang also said his wife never served as his father's lawyer. Mr Lee Kuan Yew died in 2015. If it finds the charge groundless, it will recommend the case be dismissed. If it finds misconduct, it may recommend a financial penalty of up to $20,000 or reprimand to be decided by the LawSoc's governing council. The tribunal can complete its task within six months.
It's like the drama in the Imperial palace.
