GEORGE TOWN: The High Court has fixed 23 days from March 26 to May 25 to hear the corruption case against Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng and businesswoman Phang Li Koon.

Justice Hadariah Syed Ismail made the order following the Federal Court's decision in December last year that overturned a previous Court of Appeal decision on the constitutionality of Section 62 of the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission Act 2009.
