Former transport minister Iswaran completes home detention
The Straits Times
|June 07, 2025
Former transport minister S. Iswaran has completed his jail term and is no longer under prison custody.
The Singapore Prison Service (SPS) said on June 6 that he has completed his emplacement on the Home Detention Scheme.
On Oct 3, 2024, he was handed a 12-month jail term in a case that saw, for the first time, a former Cabinet minister being sentenced.
He had spent four months in jail since he began his sentence on Oct 7, 2024. He was placed on the Home Detention Scheme on Feb 7, 2025.
SPS had previously said that Mr Iswaran was assessed to be suitable for the scheme as he was of low risk of reoffending, did not commit any institutional offence in prison and had strong family support.
Inmates who display good conduct in prison are eligible for remission after serving two-thirds of their sentence, or after serving 14 days of their sentence, whichever ends later.
In Mr Iswaran's case, this would be eight months of his 12-month term.
