| A FORMER senior police officer was charged in court on Friday with helping a friend arrange for someone to take the rap for a traffic offence.
Ex-Deputy Superintendent of Police Kelvin Choo Yew Beng, 37, allegedly helped Ms Evangeline Tay Sun Ann, 21, to pervert the course of justice in February last year by arranging for property agent Leung Man Kwan to take the blame for Ms Tay for beating the red light.
The charge also states that he helped Ms Tay pass a sum of $1,000 to Leung, 34.
Leung was sentenced to three months' jail last month for a similar offence but she is appealing.
Choo's pre-trial conference has been scheduled for Jan 21.
If convicted, he faces a jail term of up to seven years and/or a fine.
