02:43 Min

As at end-June this year, eight of the 10 convicted foreigners in the multi-billion-dollar money laundering case have been deported and are barred from re-entering Singapore. This similarly applies to the remaining two foreigners after they have finished serving their sentences. These foreigners can go to any country which their passports or travel documents allow them to go to. What happens to them in those countries or in their countries of nationality is not within Singapore’s control. Minister of State for Law Murali Pillai said this in reply to an MP’s question in Parliament on Tuesday (Jul 2).
