Kho stopped being an agent for soccer betting in early 2017. Kho then agreed to join Ah Leong in the latter’s 4-D and Toto business.
In mid-2016, he was introduced to a Malaysian man known only as “Ah Leong”.
In earlier proceedings, the prosecution said Kho started being involved in illegal gambling in 2012 when he became an agent for unlawful soccer betting, earning between $2,000 and $5,000 a month. He had also admitted to two counts of dealing with the benefits of criminal conduct.
On May 9, Kho was sentenced to two years and 10 months’ jail and a fine of $40,000 after he pleaded guilty to three charges under the Remote Gambling Act.
