Following the scandal, the prosecution had submitted several applications in 2017 to prohibit Teo from dealing with certain properties worth millions which he owned in Malaysia, New Zealand and Singapore.

Apart from being given a DNAA on Feb 18, it was also disclosed that on the same day, the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) had issued a RM30 million compound to Teo as punitive action and a form of asset recovery.

The issuance of the compound was under Section 92 (1) of the Anti-Money Laundering and Anti-Terrorism Financing and Proceeds of Unlawful Activities Act (AMLATFPUA) 2001. Earlier, counsel Ram Singh told the court that Teo has fully settled the compound of RM30 million within the stipulated time given.
