KUALA LUMPUR: The defence has applied for a copy of the main witness' statement recorded by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) in connection to the investigation of a corruption case involving former Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng and a businessman.

Lim's lawyer, Gobind Singh Deo, said the document was needed to initiate the proceeding of challenging the credibility of the witness, namely the director of Consortium Zenith Construction Sdn Bhd (CZCSB) Datuk Zarul Ahmad Mohd Zulkifli as there were conflicting statements in his testimony in court.
