Duo Jailed For Fake Ten Thousand Dollars Notes
Tuesday, 9th February 2010
Two Indonesian men were each jailed for nine years on for using and possessing fake SGD $10,000 currency notes. Akhmad Zamroni, age 41, a free-lance consultant, and Jerry Ribelard Bollu Eoh, age 53, unemployed, pleaded guilty to using as genuine a counterfeit $10,000 at the Mustafa Centre in exchange for smaller denomination on 27 October 2009. They also admitted to having 60 pieces of fake $10,000 currency notes, intending to use them as genuine, the same day. The court heard that both men conspired with others in Indonesia to exchange fake $10,000 notes in Singapore for other currency, and share the proceeds.
