Mr Murjani, 54, had bought a 50 per cent share in Ms Oon's business, now with three restaurants, in 2014.

In a statement, he said the two parties had "reached an out-ofcourt settlement to end our partnership of the better part of a decade". Ms Oon, 75, owns 50 per cent of the business with her children, Ms Tay Su-lyn and Mr Tay Yiming.
