SINGAPORE - A former police officer who was convicted of the 2013murder of a father and his son in Kovan was hanged on Feb 5.
The Singapore Police Force said the capital sentence was imposed on Iskandar Rahmat, 46, whose petitions to the president for clemency were unsuccessful.
Iskandar was sentenced on Dec 4, 2015 to hang, after he was convicted of the murder of Mr Tan Boon Sin, 67, and his elder son, Mr Tan Chee Heong, 42, at the senior Tan’s Hillside Drive house on the afternoon of July 10, 2013.
He appealed against his conviction and sentence, but the Court of Appeal dismissed his appeal on Feb 3, 2017.
The police said: “Capital punishment is imposed only for the most serious crimes, including murder.”

This type of officers? Self Reflection to all others officers. Do a self diligence check if there are still any of this calibrate behind. 2 life taken away just because of his greediness, fast money in mind. I hope this set a records and not to have the same incident.again in future. Have the Gov done anything to prevent this? How can we be assured and where can we be affirmed? Who can we get the assurance?
