Following the relevant publications regarding the arrests of persons linked to an international money laundering ring in Singapore, the Ministry of Home Affairs announces that it is aware that among those arrested as suspects are two persons who hold Cypriot citizenship. It is noted that the legislation on deprivation of Cypriot citizenship provides that citizenship may be revoked if and when the person holding Cypriot citizenship is sentenced to imprisonment for a serious criminal offence. Accordingly, the Ministry of Home Affairs will monitor the case and, if any information comes to light that satisfies the conditions set out in the legislation for the revocation of Cypriot citizenship, it will immediately proceed with all due actions provided by law to revoke their citizenship.
Further, it is noted that the Cypriot Government has so far not received any request for assistance from the Singaporean authorities in the context of the ongoing investigation. Should such a request be received, any information or other assistance required will be provided immediately.
