3AC co-founder Su Zhu has been placed at Changi Prison in Singapore after the liquidators informed the police he’s heading to the airport.
In a bold move by liquidators, Su Zhu, co-founder of <a href="https://crypto.news/tag/three-arrows-capital/" data-type="link" data-id="https://crypto.news/tag/three-arrows-capital/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Three Arrows Capital</a>, found himself behind bars in Singapore, an outcome of an escalated effort to pinpoint the dissipated assets of the unsuccessful crypto hedge fund. The enforced action came shortly after a Singapore court endorsed a four-month jail sentence due to Zhu’s non-compliance with the fund’s dissolution process.
Upon gaining insight on Sept. 29 that Zhu was en route to Changi Airport, liquidators informed the police, according to <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-10-09/singapore-tip-off-led-to-arrest-of-three-arrows-co-founder-zhu" data-type="link" data-id="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-10-09/singapore-tip-off-led-to-arrest-of-three-arrows-co-founder-zhu" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bloomberg</a> sources, who wished to remain anonymous due to the private nature of the information. Zhu, renowned for hosting crypto executives at his opulent Yarwood residence, had been under the vigilant watch of the liquidators while in Singapore.
Zhu’s detainment transpired at the terminal, following a tip to the police that he might be in a vehicle heading to the airport from his residence, shared the sources. On Oct. 5, Singapore officials validated the apprehension of an undisclosed 36-year-old male at the airport at 2:50 p.m. on Sept. 29 without specifically confirming Zhu’s identity when queried about his detainment.
Zhu and co-founder Kyle Davies are facing a court order to spend four months in prison. The prison cells at Changi Prison usually have four inmates, and prisoners have to sleep on straw mats instead of beds.
