Chew again grills Lam on 'false' evidence
He challenges Lam's assertions about key investment decisions
[SINGAPORE] Former fellow City Harvest Church (CHC) mates locked horns in court yet again yesterday, as former CHC board member and church-goer Chew Eng Han continued his cross-examination of current CHC board member and church-goer John Lam.
Chew again sought to cast doubt on Lam's testimony - including that of Chew having played a key role in CHC's major investments - by suggesting that evidence tendered by Lam was "totally false" on a number of occasions.
Chew and Lam are among the six accused of having "dishonestly misappropriated" some $24 million of CHC's Building Fund to finance Sun Ho's music career and then "round-tripping" another $26.6 million to cover the alleged misappropriation. The others on trial are Ms Ho's husband, senior pastor and co-founder Kong Hee, deputy senior pastor Tan Ye Peng, finance manager Sharon Tan and former finance manager and board member Serina Wee.
