2 S'poreans charged for allegedly helping Lim Tean escape to JB

Two Singaporean men, Mohammad Adam Abd Karim and Sulaiman Muhammad Firdaus, have been charged for allegedly conspiring to assist Lim Tean in escaping to Malaysia. Lim, a 61-year-old lawyer, was scheduled to begin his three-month and one-week jail sentence on August 3 for practicing law without a valid certificate. He failed to appear in court and was subsequently issued an arrest warrant.

The men face one count each of engaging in a conspiracy that undermines the course of justice. Should they be found guilty, they could face up to seven years in prison, a fine, or both. Their court cases will be heard again on August 14th.
