KUALA LUMPUR, March 17 — A fiery battle of words erupted during the trial of DAP politician Lim Guan Eng today at the Sessions Court here this morning.
He asserted that the defence application was an attempt to disrupt the court’s decision-making process to reach a premature verdict. “Their conduct is unbecoming of the prosecution. I would like to remind my learned friend the role of a prosecutor. The war of words in the courtroom exploded after the judge dismissed the prosecution’s preliminary objection and instructed parties to argue on the merits of the application.
Wan Shaharuddin then gave Gobind a mocking round of applause and said “what a good drama” the defence is putting in court, and added: “standards of lawyers”, in a close mimicry of his opponent’s words just minutes earlier. She then scheduled March 23 and 24 to hear the merits of the defence’s application to adduce additional documents for the proposed Penang undersea tunnel trial.
