He was not alone in this case and his wife and two former examiners were also accused and had to appear in court. The four of them had teamed together which led to the leaking of the exam papers.

It was reported that Weslie Siao had received some secret information on the phone and by messages about the 2016 and 2017 Chinese language tests which were to be conducted. He had also got some details by phone messages about a briefing session on the 2017 examination.
