Datuk Seri allegedly paid ‘top money’ to avoid authorities’ radar

Datuk Seri Nicky Liow Soon Hee

JOHOR BARU: The investigation that eventually led to the unravelling of alleged Macau scam ringleader Datuk Seri Nicky Liow Soon Hee, who is now on the wanted list, started with a probe into a handphone deal.

Johor police investigations into the syndicate started earlier this year following a report lodged in Pontian about the bogus sale of a handphone that was worth RM1,500.
