$3b money laundering case: Man who jumped off balcony gets 14 months’ jail



The second of 10 people has been convicted in Singapore’s largest money laundering case. Cypriot national Su Haijin, originally from China, has been sentenced to 14 months’ jail. Among his charges was one of resisting arrest. When the police went to Su’s house last August, the 41-year-old jumped off a balcony on the second floor. Despite fracturing his feet, he hid in a drain where authorities later found him. Authorities have seized some $170 million worth of assets from Su. He also admitted to possessing around $1.4 million in criminal proceeds through a shell company. Sherlyn Seah reports.
