Lim wins bid to impeach


KUALA LUMPUR: Former Penang chief minister Lim Guan Eng has been allowed to begin impeachment proceedings against a key prosecution witness concerning the ongoing corruption trial involving the Penang undersea tunnel project.

Sessions Court judge Azura Alwi said the court was satisfied after going through the 108-page statement by Consortium Zenith Construction Sdn Bhd (CZCSB) director Datuk Zarul Ahmad Mohd Zulkifli to the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) that was recorded for another cheating case in Shah Alam involving him and businessman G. Gnanaraja.
