KUALA LUMPUR: The eighth prosecution witness in Lim Guan Eng's corruption trial has been ordered to bring a copy of the entire WhatsApp conversations ...

"The defence needs to specify what document they want. The burden is on the defence to state the relevance," he said. He also called the defence's attempt to obtain court affidavits from the Shah Alam case "irrelevant," prompting Gobind to launch into a tirade against the prosecution for failing to produce the document despite a court order issued in September. In the Shah Alam case, Gobind said that two of Ahmad Zarul's company directors - Ibrahim Sahari and Azli Adam - had given a different statement in Shah Alam and testified that a sum of RM2mil was meant for "someone else." Gobind had asked if he could play two videos of the witnesses testifying in the Shah Alam case to show that they had lied in court. He said the whole message thread would show Ahmad Zarul, who testified earlier that he had asked Gnanaraja to pass RM2mil, codenamed "chocolate", in bribes to Lim, had lied.

KUALA LUMPUR: An RM2mil bribe codenamed “chocolate” was meant for a “big boss” who was not Lim Guan Eng, the Sessions Court here heard.

He also confirmed Zarul Ahmad's reply, saying: "Why should I cheat the prime minister? The investigating officer, the eight prosecution witness, came to court with a copy of a forensics report containing message threads between Consortium Zenith Construction Sdn Bhd (CZCSB) director Datuk Zarul Ahmad Mohd Zulkifli and businessman G. He also said the defence would file an application to "put in" the forensics report as evidence. Where can I hide?" ALSO READ: Wan Shaharuddin: Was there indicated in the report that the RM2mil "chocolate" was not paid to Lim Guan Eng? Gobind then objected, saying it was not fair for Wan Shaharuddin to ask the witness what was not in the report as only they had copies, and not him. DPP Datuk Wan Shaharuddin Wan Ladin also objected, urging the court not to record the "statement from the Bar". Stressing that the forensics report was relevant to the trial, Gobind said the prosecution's reluctance to supply the report previously was an attempt to suppress evidence, and claimed the charges against Lim were "trumped up." Wan Mohd Firdaus: No. On the morning of July 27, the report indicated, Gnanaraja told Zarul Ahmad in a text message "to work on the letter to big boss" to which the latter replied the next evening that he "got the letter to PM ready". Referring to another message exchange from July 24, 2017, Gobind said Gnanaraja texted Zarul Ahmad and said the "big boss" was very concerned about his "delivery" the next day, which Wan Mohd Firdaus confirmed.

The issue of 'RM2 million chocolate for big boss' and 'prime minister' dominated the corruption trial of former Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng involving ...
