A posse of robbers ambushed a manager of a money-changing business here back in 2014, making off with over $624,000 in cash as he was violently robbed in front of his 2-year-old son.
The first of the hateful eight — 28-year-old Malaysian Ravi Sandhira Sagaran — has been sentenced to seven years in jail and 12 strokes of the cane, Channel NewsAsia reports. He admitted to ganging up with six other Malaysians and one Singapore permanent resident to conduct the robbery.
