Tey Tsun Hang

Tey Tsun Hang (born 1970–1972; Chinese: 郑尊行; pinyin: Zhèng Zūn Xíng)[1] is a Malaysian former lawyer, legal academic, and judge of the Subordinate Courts of Singapore.

[6] At trial, Tey defended himself, though he later opted to appeal the decision while serving the five-month jail term, through a new lawyer, Peter Low.

The appeal was only decided after he had completed his sentence; in the High Court's decision, Justice Woo Bih Li found that, although Tey had indeed abused his position to engage in sexual relations with a student, he was not guilty of corruption as the relationship was not entered into for grades.

[8] After his release, Tey claimed that his prosecution was politically motivated,[9] which a 2014 article in the Australian Journal of Asian Law supported.

[4] In October 2013, Tey left Singapore without a valid re-entry permit, subsequently losing his Singaporean permanent residency status.
