John Soh Chee Wen – the accused mastermind of the 2013 penny stock crash – and his co-conspirator Quah Su-Ling, have been found guilty of several of the charges they were facing under three groups of criminal conspiracy including for forced trading, price manipulation and deception.

“Participation in criminal conspiracy itself is an offence,” Justice Hoo Sheau Peng told a full court, as she read out her verdict on May 5.

This as Soh and Quah had seemingly had an agreement to commit an illegal act as seen by how they obtained and made use of trading accounts.
