    SUSPECTS in Singapore’s S$2.8 billion money laundering case have been incorporating companies in the country since January 2017, an analysis of corporate filings by The Business Times (BT) found.

    The individuals have ties to at least 35 entities in Singapore and Cambodia through various shareholdings and directorships. Six of those entities have been struck off.

    Of the 35 companies linked to the 10 accused, six are connected to more than one suspect, highlighting the associations between these individuals through their corporate ties.
