The 82-year-old known as OK Lim arrived in court in a wheelchair.
Singapore oil tycoon Lim Oon Kuin will be sentenced on November 18 for cheating and forgery in one of the biggest trading scandals to rattle the energy-trading hub.
In a Singapore court on Tuesday, public prosecutor Christopher Ong argued for a 20-year jail sentence for Lim on three counts, including instigating forgery and deceiving HSBC Holdings Plc. Lim’s defence lawyers led by Davinder Singh sought a seven-year period.
