KUALA LUMPUR: The defence suggested that prosecution witness Datuk Seri Mahdzir Khalid was a liar as they tried to discredit his account of a series of events related to the solar hybrid project in Sarawak during an emotionally charged day three of Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor’s corruption trial.
This allegation stemmed from a line in the former education minister’s witness statement which said that he had never received any bribe from Jepak Holdings Sdn Bhd managing director Saidi Abang Shamsul – a line that the defence took issue with.
