), was convicted of six counts of corruptly obtaining gratification in the form of gifts and sex from Darinne Ko Wen Hui, in return for giving her better grades between May and July 2010.
In his grounds for decision, the chief district judge said Tey was dishonest, not a credible and truthful witness.
He said while Ko showered Tey with gifts of love and affection, it was a one-sided relationship.
CNA reported the judge as saying that Tey had taken advantage of his student and his relationship with Ko was of “ulterior motive”.
He said Tey had guilty and corrupt intent in receiving the gifts, which included a limited edition Montblanc pen and tailored shirts.
Tey could be jailed up to five years and fined up to S$100,000 on each charge.
