In response to queries from The Straits Times, MFA said it was made aware of the allegations against its officer when contacted by the Japanese media on May 1.
“The staff in question had completed his tour of duty as scheduled and returned to Singapore in mid-April 2024. He did not inform the ministry until he was asked about the incident yesterday,” an MFA spokesperson said, adding that the ministry is “prepared to waive diplomatic immunity to facilitate investigations if the alleged facts bear out”.
Earlier reports in Japanese media said the man had been removed from his post, but MFA clarified that he is suspended.
