A Singaporean court fined a local man approximately $156,000 (210,000 Singaporean dollars) on Wednesday for covering up evidence that he conducted business with North Korea-linked entities.

According to Singaporean court records reviewed by NK Pro, 43-year-old Tan Wee Beng allegedly falsified at least 20 invoices to cover up evidence that his companies, Morgan Marcos Pte Ltd. and Wee Tiong (S) Pte. Ltd., sold sugar and other commodities to entities linked to North Korea in the mid-2010s.
