Raeesah Khan

Raeesah Khan is a former lawmaker from Singapore's opposition party who confessed to lying to parliament. In February, she was fined S$14,000 for her actions. The incident led to the removal of Pritam Singh as Leader of the Opposition due to his handling of the situation. Singh lost an appeal against his guilty verdict and was subsequently stripped of his title by Prime Minister Lawrence Wong. This development has drawn attention to the constitutional basis of the Leader of the Opposition role in Singapore's political system, highlighting concerns about accountability and transparency within the opposition party.
