THE six individuals from City Harvest Church (CHC) - including founder Kong Hee - convicted of misusing millions in church funds have been permanently barred from having overall administrative control of any charity.
In a statement on Wednesday, the Office of the Commissioner of Charities (COC) said the permanent disqualification under the Charities Act "has a similar effect as a removal order, and would suffice to protect the charitable assets of the charity from the six convicted individuals, since they can no longer hold any governance or management positions in the charity".
