SINGAPORE, Jan. 19 (CNA) – Singapore authorities are seeking two more suspects connected to a massive money laundering case uncovered last year, as the total value of assets seized or issued with prohibition of disposal orders rose to more than S$3 billion (US$2.2 billion).

Warrants of arrest and Interpol Red Notices have been issued against two Cambodian nationals – Su Yongcan, 33, and Wang Huoqiang, 29 – for money laundering offences, police said on Friday (Jan 19).

Police have issued prohibition of disposal orders against another 55 properties and 15 vehicles in relation to the case.

They also seized an additional 189 luxury bags, 34 pieces of jewellery and five luxury watches.

“This brings the total value of assets seized or issued with prohibition of disposal orders to more than S$3 billion to date,” the Singapore Police Force (SPF) said in a news release.

In relation to Su, who had previously held a China-issued passport, more than S$16 million in cash and other foreign currencies have been seized. Prohibition of disposal orders were also issued for seven properties and 10 vehicles.
