The high profile corruption trial involving the Penang Undersea Tunnel that implicated DAP supremo Lim Guan Eng shall commence at the Kuala Lumpur Sessions Court from June 8 to June 11.
Subsequent trial dates are: July 12-16, July 28 and 29, August 16 and 20, September 6-10, September 20-24 and December 13-17.
December 21 last year, Judge Azura Alwi also announced that dates were also set for July through December 2021, with a total of 31 days scheduled.
Initially, Deputy Public Prosecutor Wan Shaharuddin told the court that the prosecution expects to call 80 to 90 witnesses to testify in the trial. However, during case management on March 29, the DPP told the court that some 125 prosecution witnesses, including several State Exco Members, will be placed on standby to testify.
“The prosecution has also handed over all the documents relating to the case to the defence,” said DPP Wan Shaharuddin Wan Ladin. “Some of the documents that were handed over include a telephone forensics report, a financial analysis report from the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) and expert reports on the projects involved.”
Justice must be done. And justice must be seen to be done.
Taking a cue from Washington Post that runs a motif that says ‘Democracy dies in darkness‘, I have decided to curate a Factsheet Special Page to share published information related to the trial.
If you have further information on the trial that may help enhance this Penang Undersea Tunnel Factsheet, please email to jeff001@jeffooi.com.
Will Lim’s corruption trial affect the chances on the Penang State Government in GE15? Will it negatively impact DAP nationwide? Will the populace believe Lim’s contention that it’s purely political persecution? The verdict is still out for now.

民主行动党党要林冠英涉及槟州海底隧道案件，将于 2021 年 6 月 8 日至 6 月 11 日在吉隆坡地方法庭开审。

英谚有道：正义必须获得伸张，正义更必须在众目睽睽下获得伸张。
《华盛顿邮报》（Washington Post）秉持的理念这么写：“民主会在黑暗中死亡“。基于同一个理念，我决定亲自策展这个以实据为基础的专页，借以伸张这宗涉贪的高调案件审判过程，无惧无私地与读者分享正确的案情信息。

有关林冠英涉贪案件是否将打击来届大选槟州政府的胜算？是否会影响行动党全国胜望？或是应准这一切控状只是敌手施予的的政治打压？
时间将是最佳判官。
