Hong Kong's latest development in this cryptocurrency scam case. The prosecution has filed additional charges against influencer Zhu Jiahui, increasing the money laundering charges from the original single count to four counts. As a result, the case has been upgraded from a lower court to a district court for trial.
According to the latest court documents, the prosecution alleges that Zhu Jiahui transferred approximately HKD 18.78 million of suspicious funds between 2020 and 2023 through four bank accounts. He is suspected of knowingly or should have known that these funds were derived from criminal activities, yet he continued to handle these funds. The next court hearing is scheduled for March 27, and Zhu Jiahui is currently granted bail pending trial.
This case has attracted significant attention mainly because of the scale involved. The virtual asset trading platform JPEX, which operated without a proper license, collapsed in 2023, affecting over 2,700 investors with total losses reaching USD 206 million, setting the record for the largest cryptocurrency scam in Hong Kong history. Police have already detained over 80 people, with 16 individuals formally charged.
