Nor Mohamed changes testimony over support letter


KUALA LUMPUR: Minister in the Prime Minister’s Depart­ment Tan Sri Nor Mohamed Yakcop has changed his testimony in the High Court over the issue of a “letter of support” by former Transport Minister Tun Dr Ling Liong Sik by agreeing with the defence that it was not a guarantee letter.

Nor Mohamed, who was former Finance Minister II, agreed that Ling’s letter of support (for bonds issued by Special Port Vehicle Bhd (SPVB)) could no longer be interpreted as a letter of guarantee in light of Attorney-General Tan Sri Abdul Gani Patail’s testimony at the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) inquiry into the Port Klang Free Zone (PKFZ) project on Aug 12, 2009.
