Former Penang chief minister Lim Guan Eng’s lawyer claimed there was a suppression of evidence when the authorities destroyed printouts of WhatsApp messages between a key prosecution witness and a businessperson.
Defence counsel Gobind Singh Deo made the allegation after deputy public prosecutor Wan Shaharuddin Wan Ladin told the Kuala Lumpur Sessions Court today about what happened to the message printouts.
However, the prosecution contended it was standard procedure for the message printouts to be destroyed after they were utilised in a separate cheating case against businessperson G Gnanaraja.
