Singapore and Malaysian police dismantled a Johor Bahru-based money laundering syndicate linked to scam operations, arresting twelve Malaysians last week. The syndicate allegedly used Singaporean bank accounts to launder scam proceeds. The joint operation was part of ongoing efforts between the Singapore Police Force (SPF) and the Royal Malaysia Police to combat such crimes. Besmond Huan Yu Kang, a key suspect, was extradited to Singapore, charged with conspiracy to obtain online banking credentials, and remains in custody. If convicted, Huan faces up to three years in prison. SPF emphasised the continued cross-border collaboration to eradicate transnational financial crimes, underscoring the importance of protecting Singapore’s financial system integrity.
