With Interpol, Italian, and Singapore authorities working together they were able to make a major arrest. The man arrested is Admir Suljic a former player for a Solvienia team and associate of Mr. Tan who help fix over 680 matches and bribe players in a Finland professional league. Both Mr. Tan and Suljic will be tried in Italian court. It is big break through in the case simply because there has never been a crack down on fixers on this level before. With a crack down on these suspects could lead to more fixer arrests in the future. I also think it is interesting because you have different countries working together and not against each other to catch criminals.
