Liang, the sole proprietor of JDM Automobile and a partner at Autogallery@JDM, pleaded guilty to three charges, two of which were under the Customs Act for fraudulent evasion of duty amounting to about $245,674 for the import of the motor vehicles.
The third charge was for giving incorrect information under the Road Traffic Act in relation to the value of 219 motor vehicles.
Three other similar charges were taken into consideration during sentencing.
