Solicitor among Belfast fraud ring accused - Northern Ireland, Local & National - Belfasttelegraph.co.uk

Solicitor among Belfast fraud ring accused - Northern Ireland, Local & National - Belfasttelegraph.co.uk: "A solicitor appeared in court with her brother and sister yesterday after a major probe into alleged fraud, money laundering and sham marriages.
A fourth suspect, a former director of the well-known Red Panda Chinese restaurant and property group, also faces a litany of charges after a year-long police probe into their financial affairs.
He is a relative by marriage of the other three accused.
The accused are Ho Ling Mo (38), of Oakwood Park; Wu Pu Paul Mo (40), from Strathyre Park; Ling Sui Mo (44) and her husband Yau Hon Cheung (50), both of Garvey Manor, all of Belfast.
Ho Ling Mo faces charges including acquiring, converting and transferring nearly £300,000 in criminal property.
She is also accused of false accounting, fraud by false representation, four counts of assisting unlawful immigration by organising a sham marriage, cheating the public revenue, and conspiracy to conceal criminal property.
It was alleged that she owns a number of properties and has amassed more than HK$2m (£160,000) in bank accounts.
A detective opposed to bail told Belfast Magistrates Court that she was in the process of securing remortgages and could “start her life afresh in China”.
He claimed there was a risk of interfering with witnesses."
