POLICE are investigating a report lodged by a businessman against former television actor Lin Yisheng, which alleges that he failed to pass on $120,000 that he had raised for a charity.

Mr Lin, 43, organised a celebrity soccer game in July 2007 to raise funds for the Metta Welfare Association.

He is now uncontactable, even to his friends and a shareholder in his company, Celebrities Holdings.

The report was made by a 40-year-old businessman who did not want to be named.

He alleged that Mr Lin had promised the $120,000 to the charity for over a year, but has not delivered.
