The $1.8 billion money laundering case in Singapore has been the talk of the town, and for good reason.

There have been more details about that incident, including the fact that his eldest son was involved.
Here’s what you need to know.
Su Haijin’s Son Has Led Police Officers to His Room Before He Jumped off His GCB to Escape
On 13 Sep 2023, it was reported that Su Haijin’s eldest son was the one to lead police officers to his parents’ bedroom on 15 Aug 2023.
A team of officers had entered Su’s home in Ewart Park in Bukit Timah when they met his eldest son at around 6.40am.
The son then led them to his parents’ bedroom and called for his father to come to the door.
According to Mr. Thia Yang Shen, an officer from the Commercial Affairs Department (CAD), the bedroom door was locked.
His son had not given any indication of danger but Su did not respond to his son’s calls.
He did not respond even after officers told him to step out and threatened to storm into the room.
The team then stormed into the room but Su was nowhere to be found.
Suspecting that Su had jumped off the second-floor balcony, the team searched the area and eventually found him hiding in a drain outside
Su had taken the effort to go down a flight of steps to escape despite fracturing his feet and wrist.
Seized & Frozen Assets Worth $171,340,000
If you ever want to feel poor, just read the subheading above 10 times. Yes, that’s probably more money than most of us would earn in a lifetime, or several.
According to Mr Thia’s affidavit (read: written statement), the police had seized or frozen the assets of Su and his wife, Wi Qin.
This included more than $120 million in properties and more than $2.6 million in vehicles.
Su had also admitted to having 10 overseas properties worth more than $14.2 million, as well as partial ownership of a yacht, Family, valued at $5.45 million (US$4 million).
In total, the worth of the assets seized or frozen by the police from Su and his wife amounts to $171,340,000.
Family Moving Out of Ewart Park
Su’s family is believed to be moving out of the Ewart Park good class bungalow.
Since 4 Sep 2023, large boxes and movers were spotted at the house.
Straits Times reported that they witnessed a moving truck taking boxes from the house to Gramercy Park, a condo in Orchard, when they visited on 11 Sep 2023.
According to Su’s business records, his registered address is a unit at the condo.
The Mysterious Yacht
Su had allegedly made payments for the yacht, Family, with Su Baolin and two other individuals.
The yacht, however, was registered to a fifth individual.
The three unidentified individuals have left Singapore either before or shortly after investigations began.
The yacht, Family, was initially not allowed to leave One°15 Marina in Sentosa Cove where it was docked.
However, the yacht was cleared to leave on 19 Aug 2023 and traveled to Phuket in Thailand.
On 24 Aug 2023, Family left Phuket and has been anchored at Langkawi, Malaysia, since 25 Aug, according to a vessel finder website.
Further inquiries revealed that the vessel was registered to an individual whose name doesn’t match any of the ten people arrested in the money laundering case.
The agent company, Craft Docket, declined to reveal the name.
