Law Society of Singapore seeks to strike off Pritam Singh

Published Jul 31, 01:08 PM UTC

The Law Society of Singapore is seeking to have Workers' Party (WP) chief Pritam Singh struck off the rolls at a disciplinary hearing. This action follows Singh's conviction in February 2025 on two counts of lying under oath to the Committee of Privileges. The hearing represents a significant legal and political development in Singapore, as Singh is a prominent opposition figure. The Law Society's application could result in Singh being disbarred, which would have major implications for his political career and the Workers' Party. The article, published by The Business Times on July 31, 2026, notes that Singh was convicted for providing false testimony to a parliamentary committee.
