SINGAPORE: Three Filipino maids have been charged with helping illegal moneylenders run their business.

Two of them, 27-year-old Honey Irene Busto Pande and 36-year-old Amparo Cacayuran Gayo allegedly helped 69-year-old Singaporean Lawrence Yeo in issuing a three hundred dollars loan to another Filipino maid.

This allegedly happened at Rio Vista condominium at Upper Serangoon View on July 25, last year.

Pande is also accused of helping Mr Yeo issue a loan of three hundred dollars to Gayo at the same condominium on June 16.

Mr Yeo hasn't been charged yet in court.

Separately, 28-year-old Melanie Jacalan Munar is the third maid accused of committing the offence.

Also charged with carrying out a loansharking business is 47-year-old Koh Suat Lay, a Singaporean woman.

The pair had allegedly issued a loan of five hundred dollars to a Filipino maid at Lucky Plaza in February, last year.

The loan had an interest rate of 50 per cent and was repayable over three months.

The four women will be remanded at the Central Police Division and will be back in court next Thursday.

If convicted of being part of illegal moneylending businesses, they can be jailed up to four years and fined between $30,000 and $300,000 dollars.
