KUALA LUMPUR: High Court judge Justice Collin Lawrence Sequerah is putting his foot down in the RM2.28bil 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) trial involving Datuk Seri Najib Razak.
The judge said he no longer tolerated the cross-examination of witnesses being reserved as he wanted the trial to move promptly.
Kok had finished reading his witness statement and was still on the witness stand awaiting the proceedings when lead prosecutor Datuk Seri Gopal Sri Ram stood up to voice his dissatisfaction over Muhammad Shafee's absence and requested for the cross-examination to be conducted this week. "This trial is going on in instalments... over and over again with witnesses' cross-examination being reserved. I've accommodated as much as I can.
