Lim's name cropped up more than a year after probe in Gnanaraja's case, court told

KUALA LUMPUR: The prosecution's key witness in the corruption case involving Lim Guan Eng told the Sessions Court here on Friday (March 15) that the former Penang Chief Minister's name only cropped up in 2019 more than a year after the investigation into the case involving businessman G. Gnanaraja.

Consortium Zenith Construction Sdn Bhd (CZCSB) director Datuk Zarul Ahmad Mohd Zulkifli, 65, told this to the court when lawyer RSN Rayer, representing Lim, referred to his (Zarul Ahmad) statement that was recorded by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) in the case involving Gnanaraja in the Sessions Court Shah Alam in 2018.
