SINGAPORE: The owner of a local gold company which was involved in a gold investment scam worth tens of millions of dollars ten years ago, was unable to escape from the long hands of the law. The owner Lee Song Teck fled Singapore before the authorities launched an investigation and only returned ten years later. He was was charged in court on 17 Feb with ten counts of deception, the police said in a statement.
The defendant allegedly provided timeshare investment through one of the companies, The Discovery Group Pte Ltd, and deceived ten investors whose investment had a guarantee issued by TGG, luring them into investing $157,000. The defendant returned to Singapore on the 2nd of this month after a lapse of ten years but still could not escape the law.
The scandal was sparked when several customers of TGG complained to the authorities that they were unable to collect the gold they had purchased from the company. The investigation that followed revealed that TGG had sold investment products that were not backed by actual gold, but rather by promissory notes.
