Divorced her Singaporean husband so he could marry her younger sister.
Nanyang Siang Pau and Sin Chew Daily also highlighted the case of a Chinese national who divorced her Singaporean husband so he could marry her younger sister.
Elder sister Li Zong Xiang was married to the 46-year-old Singaporean which allowed her to remain in the republic. She divorced her husband after two years.
Six months after their divorce, Zong Xiang’s ex-husband married younger sister Zong Xiu.
However, Singapore’s Immigration Depart-ment smelt a rat and investigated the sisters.
It was discovered that Zong Xiu had initially entered Singapore in 2004 on a student visa but ended up working as a guest relations officer.
She was to be deported but in March last year, she married the Singaporean, allowing her to extend her stay in the republic.
Immigration officers also found out that the sisters had been using various identities to enter Singapore. Although the Singaporean claimed he was unaware that both women were siblings, he was jailed 10 days for failing to inform authorities of the sisters’ scam.
Zong Xiang was jailed 16 days while her sister received 18 days.
