The assets do not solely belong to the 10 individuals who were arrested, but to a total of 27 individuals. The police have stated that they will maintain the prohibition against disposal and custody of the seized assets until the court concludes the case. Eight of the arrested individuals have already been convicted and sentenced, while two others are expected to plead guilty. The remaining 17 individuals are linked to approximately $2.1 billion in cash and assets. \[[link](https://www.singaporelawwatch.sg/Headlines/Money-laundering-case-Bulk-of-3b-worth-of-assets-seized-from-17-foreigners-not-from-10-arrested)\] + +A former lorry driver, Safuan Tehda, has been sentenced to 23 months in jail and an eight-year driving ban after a fatal hit-and-run accident in Singapore. Safuan pleaded guilty to three charges, including driving without due care and attention causing death, failing to stop after an accident, and obstructing justice. The accident occurred when Safuan hit a pedestrian at a zebra crossing, causing serious injuries that resulted in the pedestrian's death. Instead of stopping, Safuan continued driving and crossed into Malaysia. He was extradited to Singapore more than six months later. The court emphasized Safuan's lack of care and failure to render assistance as aggravating factors in the sentencing. \[[link](https://www.singaporelawwatch.sg/Headlines/Ex-lorry-driver-gets-23-months-jail-8-year-driving-ban-after-fatal-accident-with-pedestrian-then-crossing-into-Malaysia)\]
