Tey Tsun Hang seeks court order to return to NUS
An honorable member of the Coffee Shop Has Just Posted the Following:
Former National University of Singapore (NUS) law professor Tey Tsun Hang has applied for a court order to be reinstated as a lecturer at the NUS law school. Tey, who was in February this year acquitted from charges of exploiting a former student by having sex with her in exchange for better grades, released court documents and a statement to media on Tuesday announcing his court action. In his statement, Tey, 43, who is now living in Malayisa and is unemployed, said he was suspended by the university in a “breach of natural justice”, where his “right to a fair hearing was violated” on 27 July 2012, the day he was charged in court with corruption. Further, he said, he was summarily dismissed by NUS on 28 May last year — the day he was found guilty and convicted of his charges — without giving him an opportunity to be heard and “without regard to due process”. Calling NUS’s dismissal of him “illegal, irrational and procedurally improper”, Tey filed applications for two quashing orders against his suspension and dismissal, as well as one mandatory order for his reinstatement. “The NUS jumped the gun,” he wrote in an affidavit filed in the High Court by his new legal counsel and human rights lawyer M Ravi. “In view of the appeal having been allowed on 28 February 2014, the NUS’ decision of summary dismissal on 28 May 2013 cannot stand, is void and of no legal effect.” Tey stressed also that he was never called for any disciplinary hearing by the university; neither had he been served any charges from them. The former law professor made headlines in Singapore two years ago, when news surfaced that he was being investigated for corruption. After going on trial, where details of his extra-marital affair with Darinne Ko, an ex-student of his, emerged, he was first convicted of his charges and sentenced to five months’ jail. Tey served the time and left the country pending his appeal. The appeal, which was heard about five months later, and which was handled by lawyer Peter Low, was successful. Yahoo Singapore has contacted the university for a response to Tey's court action. Click here to view the whole thread at www.sammyboy.com. |
