SINGAPORE - Billionaire Peter Lim’s former son-in-law, Kho Bin Kai, will be spending time behind bars after he pleaded guilty to multiple offences including those involving a syndicate linked to illegal gambling activities.
Kho was linked to multiple illegal gambling websites, earning an average of between $30,000 and $40,000 a month over one of them alone. His lawyers said that among his offences, he had managed remote gambling on two websites, and had also assisted in the conduct of remote gambling on a third platform.
In mid-2016, he was introduced to a Malaysian man known only as “Ah Leong”. Kho then agreed to join Ah Leong in the latter’s 4D and Toto business.
