The 10 people who have been arrested and charged in relation to a multi-billion dollar money laundering probe all hold either employment passes or dependent’s passes in Singapore, and none had been on Interpol’s list of Red Notices at the time of their application for these passes.
When the police first announced the arrest on August 15, they had said that another 12 people are assisting with investigations and eight others are currently wanted by the police. “At the same time, we should be sensible. Most people are not illegal money launderers or criminals. If we make the rules too tight, then it is the vast majority of innocent applicants who will be unnecessarily penalised. The crooks will still try to find a way around the rules,” she said.
The finance sector contributes about 14 per cent of Singapore’s economy and employs about 200,000 people, making it an important industry here.
