A Sinister Scheme Uncovered

Gan Chin Huat, a 51-year-old Singaporean man, was arrested with nine others in a CID operation against a remote gambling syndicate.

Gan was found to be the mastermind behind the creation and issuance of online betting accounts for six co-offenders on various illegal websites, facilitating lottery, soccer, and horse betting.

Gan was given a 26-month prison sentence and a fine of S$160,000 on 12 July 2018 for running a Singapore-based remote gambling service and taking illegal 4D and TOTO bets.

This was done in violation of the Remote Gambling Act of 2014.

The Price of Crime: Confiscation of Unexplained Wealth

Following his conviction, the Police sought a confiscation order against Gan to forfeit the benefits derived from his criminal conduct.

Through thorough financial investigations, they found that Gan had accumulated unexplained wealth disproportionate to his known sources of income.

The High Court ordered the recovery of approximately S$110,332.67 on 13 March 2023.

As stated under Section 7(1) of the Corruption, Drug Trafficking and Other Serious Crimes (Confiscation of Benefits) Act 1992, anyone convicted of a serious offence may have their benefits from criminal conduct confiscated.
