SINGAPORE: The consumers association CASE and insurance company NTUC Income are battling it out with two private schools at the High Court.
Stansfield College and the Singapore Institute of Commerce, both owned by Mr Kannappan Chettiar, are claiming CASE wrongfully suspended the schools from an accreditation scheme.
This meant the schools could no longer take in foreign students.
CASE had said it did this because the schools did not have any insurance for more than 400 foreign students.
Chairman of the schools, Mr Kannappan, said it was unreasonable for CASE to suspend the accreditation without an "on-site" investigation.
Mr Kannappan is seeking some S$10 million in damages.
He will take the stand again on Monday in what is being viewed as a "David versus two Goliaths" case. - CNA/vm
