As previously reported, the Federal Public Ministry (MPF), in February 2020, filed complaints against Guilherme Esteves de Jesus for money laundering and former Sembcorp Marine employee Martin Cheah Kok Choon for money laundering and corruption related to certain drilling platforms and construction contracts, contracted by the company’s subsidiaries with Sete Brasil in 2012.

In an update on Thursday, Singapore-based offshore platform builder Sembcorp Marine stated that the Federal Court of Justice in Curitiba accepted the complaint filed by the Federal Public Ministry against Guilherme Esteves de Jesus and Martin Cheah Kok Choon.

Martin Cheah is the former president of Estaleiro Jurong Aracruz Ltda (EJA), the Brazilian subsidiary of the company, which was closed in June 2015.

The companies linked to Guilherme were contracted by the company’s subsidiaries as consultants, with all these consultancy contracts suspended and remaining suspended by Sembcorp Marine for an indefinite period.

The charges against Martin Cheah and Guilherme by the MPF are in their personal capacities and not against the Shipyard.
