Tun Dr Ling Liong Sik’s cheating trial involving the Port Klang Free Zone (PKFZ) scandal was today interrupted suddenly when the former minister fell ill midway through his testimony and was rushed to the hospital.
“My client has been taken ill, and we would like to request a postponement because he is suffering from low blood sugar and needs to be rushed to hospital for treatment,” Dr Ling’s defence lawyer, Wong Kian Kheong, told the court.
Judge Datuk Ahmadi Asnawi said the hearing will resume on Friday.
