Appeals court allows Peter Anthony to submit new evidence in forgery case


PUTRAJAYA: The Court of Appeal has allowed an application by former Sabah infrastructure development minister Datuk Peter Anthony to submit new evidence in his final appeal to set aside his conviction, prison sentence and fine for forgery.

A panel of three judges led by Justice Datuk Vazeer Alam Mydin Meera allowed his application on Wednesday (Feb 7) after DPPs Datuk Wan Shaharuddin Wan Ladin and Haresh Prakash Somiah did not object to it.
