Prosecution in Roger Ng’s case told to get A-G’s instructions


Former Goldman Sachs banker Roger Ng Chong Hwa

KUALA LUMPUR: The prosecution in former Goldman Sachs banker Roger Ng Chong Hwa’s case has been ordered by the High Court here to obtain appropriate instructions from the Attorney-General’s Chambers (AGC) so the case will not be on hold for too long.

Justice Muhammad Jamil Hussin said this after deputy public prosecutor Zaki Asyraf Zubir informed the court of Ng’s temporary extradition to the United States (US) until Feb 28, 2024, to proceed with appeals in criminal cases that were brought against him there.
