Ahtong 1st Gear July 21, 2011 Share July 21, 2011 Policeman guilty of data misuse By Alvina Soh | Posted: 30 June 2011 1933 hrs SINGAPORE: A police station inspector, who received numerous awards for good conduct and long service, admitted Thursday to three counts of illegally accessing a police computer system to trace his Indonesian maid's whereabouts. Thirty-four-year-old Sheik Faisal Shaik Abdul Kader Ali, who is still with the Singapore Police Force, admitted to misusing official data after his maid had gone missing. Investigations revealed that on November 22, 2009, Sheik discovered his maid had not returned home since early morning. Sheik, who was the duty investigation officer at Bedok Police Division that day, accessed an online police computer system to trace the missing maid at about 11.30am. He executed several searches in the system and retrieved police reports without authority. Eventually, he came across a police report lodged by his maid claiming he had molested her. However, investigation revealed she had made a false police report after an extra marital affair between them turned sour. The court heard that Sheik, a father of two, had used the police system for non-official purposes and did not want to inconvenience himself and his colleagues by lodging a police report for his missing maid. He will be sentenced July 8. For accessing data without authority from a computer system of the Ministry of Home Affairs for non-official purposes, he can be jailed up to two years, fined up to S$5,000, or both. Sheik's maid was given a stern warning for making the false report. -CNA/wk ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SimonTan 2nd Gear July 21, 2011 Share July 21, 2011 (edited) No no no.... Screwing maid was not the wrong doing. He should have just let the situation go thru motion....he will not be in so much trouble compared to now. It was the accessing of ah kong private computer for personal use!! Just like working.....if I know or hear of something or know of something that is going to affect the company....I just keep it to myself. Better don't report or try to solve the situation. It will backfire and the ultimate blame might in the end be placed on just one person, me! Most time a few people will be blamed as a group when the big boss eventually find out, sharing of blame is better!!! Had I highlighted the problem to boss immediately, the boss will target me to solve the issue, and if cannot solved...all the blame will be on me. While those involved colleagues will not help or care at all!! Most times in life....best to Let things happen or See things happen.
