Opposition politician held ahead of case against PM


A SINGAPOREAN opposition politician and lawyer was arrested on suspicion of misappropriating money and harassment, days before a client of his faces a libel case against the city-state’s leader.

Lim Tean was handcuffed and escorted from his office yesterday as he prepared his client’s case against Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong, and his own lawyer slammed the arrest as “politically motivated”.
