SINGAPORE: A company was fined a total of S$22,000 for exporting a consignment of controlled military electronic connectors without authorisation.

The consignment, which was valued at S$13,599, was intended to be shipped from Switzerland via Singapore to a consignee in Iran.

Singapore Customs said World Freight Pte Ltd admitted to exporting items categorised as "strategic goods" without the required permit.

This is in violation of the Strategic Goods (Control) Act.

Is Switzerland a normal exporter of goods to Iran?
