Singapore Billion Dollars Money Laundering Suspect Denied Bail

 

A 31-year-old Cambodian man, Su Wenqiang, who faced charges related to a billion-dollar money laundering case, was denied bail in Singapore on November 2 due to being considered a high flight risk.

He faces two charges under the Corruption, Drug Trafficking and Other Serious Crimes Act.

One charge relates to allegedly using S$500,000 from criminal activities to purchase a Mercedes Benz AMG C63S, while the other pertains to purportedly possessing S$601,706 stemming from unlawful remote gambling offenses.

Ten suspects charged in connection with the case have been denied bail. Su's defense counsel argued that there was no evidence that his actions contravened Singapore's laws.

The prosecution maintained that Su is a flight risk given his previous evasion of authorities and ability to obtain passports from multiple countries.

District Judge Brenda Tan denied bail, noting that Su presented a high flight risk and would return to court on December 14 for a pre-trial conference.

If found guilty, he could face a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison or a fine of up to S$500,000, or both, for each charge.
