SINGAPORE — Su Haijin, one of the 10 accused in the billion-dollar money laundering case, is an extreme flight risk and could have passports in as many as five countries, said the prosecution on Wednesday .
He has been in remand since Aug 15, and was applying on Wednesday for bail, appearing in court via video-link from Changi Medical Centre. The application for bail was rejected. DPP Hu said Su Haijin was a flight risk and added: "Despite breaking both legs and injuring his wrists, he still mastered the will to leave his house to hide in a drain from the police."
She had earlier clarified with the prosecution that a property mentioned in the investigating officer's affidavit in Oxford Street was in fact in London. His second charge, which was recently amended, states he had allegedly conspired with one Wang Qiming to make a false document to cheat Standard Chartered Bank in December 2020.
DPP Ng had said Su Baolin, a 41-year-old Cambodian national, had made payments in 2021 amounting to $2.2 million in Su Haijin's name towards two properties in Beach Road.
