TODAY reports: Abdul Hameed Mohamed Farook, 55, allegedly made false declarations in connection with 12 applications for work passes for foreign employees from India between Nov 28, 2012 and May 19 this year.
SINGAPORE: The director of Blue Diamond Restaurant in Buffalo Road was charged on Thursday (Nov 20) with falsely declaring the salaries of 12 foreign employees.
Abdul Hameed Mohamed Farook, 55, allegedly made false declarations in connection with 12 applications for work passes for foreign employees from India between Nov 28, 2012 and May 19 this year. Of the applications for S Pass and Employment Passes, three were new applications while nine were for renewals.
Abdul had declared to the Ministry of Manpower (MOM) that he would pay the 12 employees – whom he intended to employ as cooks, chefs, a manager, a sales manager and a business development manager for the restaurant – monthly salaries between S$2,800 and S$4,500. However, he intended to pay them salaries lower than what was declared.
Based on the false declarations, the applications were approved and work passes were issued, the MOM said.
If convicted for the 12 charges, Abdul is liable to a fine not exceeding S$20,000 or to imprisonment for a term not exceeding two years, or both.
Providing false salary information to MOM to obtain a work pass is an offence under the Employment of Foreign Manpower Act (EFMA). The MOM added that offenders will be severely dealt with and if convicted, they can be fined up to S$20,000, and/or imprisoned up to two years. They may also be permanently barred from employing foreign employees in future.
