Prosecution builds case with evidence from 6th witness
Defence disputes Samuel Goh's testimony that the accused instructed him to destroy documents

The court had heard previously from witness Kevin Swampillai, a 52-year-old Malaysian who is BSI's former head of wealth management services, that late-night meetings with Yeo, 33, were held as Singapore's Commercial Affairs Department (CAD) seemed to be closing in on its investigations into transactions involving them.
