Indians are often good in two things. They either make more momentum with good deeds or spoil nation's reputation with lies, deceit and fraudulent. In the latter case, we have a 61 year old Indian-Singaporean man who has been sentenced to 33 months for cheating a 70-year-old Dutch woman of over $3 lakhs on the pretext of promoting her yoga books and investing in a property in Indonesia.
It was said that the 61 year old person name is Thomas Subramaniam. Along with his spouse Hameedah Bee Abdul Jaffar, he convinced Hong Kong-based Dutch national Elisabeth Evararda Van Der Laan for placing her money in the account of their company Billionaires Management Worldwide (BMW).
However in this case, Hameedah was not sent behind bars and it has been postponed to next month as she was hospitalized. The case came in front of District Judge Toh Yung Cheong and it was clear that they have cheated them by fake cheques and delivering the money.
As per public prosecutors Kwek Chin Yong and Norman Yew, the couple have deceived Everada by saying they can get back their investments during retirement age.
