NZ man faces jail in Singapore P case

Former Fisher and Paykel Appliances executive Graham Ball has pleaded guilty to five drugs charges in a Singapore court.

Ball, 45, who is accused of possessing 2.25g of methamphetamine, or P, and 1.19g of ketamine in the flat that the New Zealand company leased for him, faces up to 10 years in jail when he is sentenced on July 13.

He is reported to have escaped a caning after his lawyer struck a plea bargain deal.
