MURDER OF SINGAPORE STUDENTS IN SYDNEY


1.

Mr Chiam See Tong asked the Minister for Home Affairs (a) whether the Australian Police have to date released to the Singapore Police any information in relation to the investigations on the murder of two Singapore students studying in a university in Sydney on 15th September 2003, and if not, (b) whether the Singapore Police will approach its Australian counterpart for the information.

Mr Wong Kan Seng: Both the Singapore Police and the Singapore High Commission in Canberra have been in regular contact with the New South Wales (NSW) Police to provide whatever assistance required concerning the investigations into the murder of the two Singaporean students in Sydney on 15th September 2003.

The NSW Police has informed us that investigations are still going on, and they are pursuing all possible leads. They are unable to release any information currently so as not to compromise the ongoing investigations.
