Lee Kim Tah to lodge criminal complaints against its ex-director
The Straits Times
|August 23, 2025
Construction player Lee Kim Tah (LKT) will lodge criminal complaints in Singapore and India against former director Edmund Cheah Tiang Ann, escalating a dispute over alleged breaches of fiduciary duties related to the group's Indian operations.
-
The move comes as LKT pursues a separate civil lawsuit against Mr Cheah, who served as director from 2005 to 2023 and oversaw the company's investments during his tenure.
At the centre of the allegations are transactions involving L&W Construction, a subsidiary of the LKT-Woh Hup joint venture that provided construction services to property developments in India. CapitaLand was among L&W's clients for these projects.
LKT has accused Mr Cheah of allowing L&W to enter into "dubious transactions" while under his supervision.
