A Singapore Airlines pilot accused of making prank calls about a colleague in B.C. could be facing a hefty fine -- and up to three years in jail -- if found guilty.
Looi Kang San, 53, was charged in Singapore last week with making four prank calls from there to three Canadian fast-food outlets for food to be delivered to the home of Steven Cameron Gillis in Surrey, the Straits Times reported.
Looi is said to have called on Nov. 11 last year to Canadian Pizza and McDonald's for food to be delivered to Gillis, also a Singapore Airlines pilot.
The following day, he allegedly called Kentucky Fried Chicken and made a second call to Canadian Pizza.
When reached at home, Gillis, 57, declined to comment, but alluded that there was more to the story.
Looi has been with Singapore Airlines for more than 30 years and has been suspended. No explanation was given for why Looi made the calls, the report said.
Looi's passport has been impounded and he is out on bail for $8,000 Singapore dollars, or about $5,322 Cdn.
A pre-trial conference has been scheduled for this Tuesday.
Under Singapore's Telecommunications Act, anyone who transmits a false message by phone can be fined up to $10,000 Singapore dollars ($6,652 Cdn) and jailed for up to three years.

That's why SG is named a fine country... No matter how small the thing is, the bill is extremely heavy....Originally posted by Meia Gisborn:Wow. The punishment is completely out of proportion to the alleged 'crime,' especially when no physical harm was done.
That's Singapore 'justice' for you...
