SINGAPORE - A former Master Sergeant (MSG) admitted on Wednesday to ordering a full-time national serviceman (NSF) to drive a jeep, even though he had no valid licence.

The NSF, while driving in the Marsiling training area, lost control of the jeep, causing the death of another NSF who was his passenger on May 11, 2012. Two other soldiers who were also passengers were injured. The four men were taking part in a training exercise.

Ex-MSG Lee Kong Kean, 33, the officer conducting the exercise, later asked the instructors to lie to investigators that the NSF, Cavin Tan, now 22, had stolen the jeep he was driving.

Lee pleaded guilty to two charges of a rash or negligent act to endanger the life or personal safety of others, and obstructing justice. He is expected to be sentenced on April 22.
