Lee Pey Ying is accused of collecting S$1,537,000 from one Zhou Ying between July 6 and 17 this year. Court documents did not reveal who Zhou is. They told her she was being investigated for a serious crime and instructed her to hand over S$1 million in cash over five days to a woman, the police said.
Lee now faces one charge of assisting another person to retain benefits from criminal conduct under the Corruption, Drug Trafficking and Other Serious Offences Act.Lee was offered bail of S$100,000, though her lawyer argued that she was of low flight risk and asked for bail of S$30,000 instead. Her passport has been seized and her proposed bailor is a relative who works in Singapore.
