Singapore: Blind widow, 84, recovers nearly RM4.63mil after suing her two younger children


INGAPORE, Nov 7 (The Straits Times/ANN): A blind woman, 84, successfully sued two of her children to recover nearly S$1.37 million (RM4.63 million) owed from the rental and sale of her late husband’s shophouse.

On Oct 31, the High Court dismissed claims by her younger daughter S. Geetha Subramaniam and only son S. Mogan that their mother had gifted them S$1.36 million of the proceeds, reprimanding them for their conduct in obtaining her signature for a gift document that no one else knew about except her son’s friend, who handled the sale of the property.
