SINGAPORE: Two logistics workers who conspired to help smuggle the suspects in the multimillion-dollar Tradenation luxury goods scam
Mohamed Alias, 40, and 38-year-old Mohamad Fazli Abdul Rahman received a year's jail each. They each pleaded guilty to two charges under the Immigration Act of abetting a person to leave Singapore illegally.
Fazli agreed to do so in exchange for 16,000 ringgit . That same day, he called Alias, who was his colleague in the same Malaysian logistics company. Alias, a Malaysian, worked as a lorry driver making deliveries from Malaysia to Singapore. On Anson's instruction, Fazli told Alias to wait for the couple there. Around 5pm that day, Pi and Pansuk arrived and told Alias they were there to take a ride in the lorry.
At the checkpoint, the immigration officer did the standard clearance for the lorry to leave Singapore, and no spot check on the container was conducted.
