KNS those 10 suspect involve the Biggest money laundering of 3 billions ++ Now today the 4th one also just sentence to 14 months
the previous ones are sentence to 13 to 15 months seem like the rest all will be the same ...
By this year all can happy come out from Jail become rich again ?? In another Countries ?? even they ban coming back in SG.
Whereas I see those crime like sumggling cirgarettes , corruption eat company funds , etc all sentence to years in jail.

Could it be that the SG govt is showing some form of gratitude to the money launderers for contributing to the public coffers with the confiscation of their billions in ill-gotten gains?

I realised that Foreigners often get away with lighter sentence. Not sure if my comment is confounded.

$ laundering is one of the hardest white collar crime to detect and track. So tough to crack that MAS and SPF had to 400 of their officers and other resources from various financial institutions to work on the case and collect sufficient evidence to proceed with charges and court case over 3 years period...
On the Bright side of this, this shows how much $$$, legal or otherwise, is willing to be in SG....
