I trust you're not a qualified accountant yourself? If you are you should well know the consequences if caught.
If not, the consequences are not so clear. It's a sackable offence, even tho I doubt cops will be called in (NOT a lawyer BTW). But do you do it anyway? I leave you with this

Actually there's slight difference
Controls are in place to prevent irregularities happen, internal audit is to review such controls to ensure they are effective... But both are in place to ensure everything is in compliance
Actually there's so little info that I can offer any suggestion.... But if you think the thing is serious enough that it violated code of conduct of senior management, as a listed company you can file a report with Stock Exchange... Or send those info to Fruit Daily / Because Daily
Edit: Internally get it resolved? If the senior management is asking you to circumvent internal control, I can't think of any possibility that internally they would care.... If you see Swire as internal, write to Swire Board MIGHT work...
