Tan Cheng Hoe, director of a Singapore-registered shipping company, Chinpo, arrives at the State Court on Friday, Jan. 29, 2016, in Singapore. Chinpo was ordered by the State Court to pay close to $127,000 in fines for wiring money used to transport fighter jets and surface-to-air missile systems from Cuba to North Korea in 2013.
