Hok Seng Ling has returned £5.6 million to the UK government under a confiscation order tied to cryptocurrency laundering, and authorities also recovered £1,990 in interest. An English court ordered Ling to forfeit £5,603,305 after he pleaded guilty to money-laundering offenses at Southwark Crown Court in November 2025. He was sentenced to four years and 11 months in prison. Most of the recovered sum came from cryptocurrency seized when he was arrested, completing the order. Ling, 48, had worked as a butler for Qian.
