The onus should lie with the financial institutions to detest the flow of incoming/out going fund and not those property agents. 

Unless those guys carry cold hard cash in stacks when making the payment like MCF. 😁

I suspect those property agents called up for investigation isn't so much on the settlement but more so on the ownership rules. For that aspect the property agent indeed is legally oblige to the seller. 

I doubt property agent has the relevant tools to detect such fraudulent activities.  Since this is over a span of periods the Iras, mas and financial institution should pick up such illicit activities.  

Quoted from the article 

"Notably, one of the suspects, Su Haijin, was reportedly a shareholder or director in multiple companies..."

 

Did not I said so weeks ago.

It's just the tip of the iceberg. I'm sure there are many many more waiting to be revealed.

All trying to get out of the country before getting caught.

Don't care as long as all cheong kong and contribute to nation building! 

Not so straight forward. Local assets can be realised. Bank accounts can be freeze but must be return back to rightful owner if sources can be trace locally or overseas. It would take year(s). 😁

As I said previously, property agent has to do proper KYC checks.

That’s rule.
Nobody said illegal transactions cannot be detected during KYC checks.

If there is serious red flag, it should be reported.

Banks can get into trouble if KYC and AML rule (set by MAS) is not follow through.

Since this is money laundering case, there is NO rightful owner to return.
