Walaubagaimanapun hari ini ditangguhkan bagi kali ketiga dan akan disambung semula pada 31 Oktober. Liatnya ahli politik nak dikenakan hukuman.

Chan’s lead lawyer Datuk Tan Hock Chuan said he had no objections to the application.

Justice Zamani Abdul Rahim, who now based in Penang, said it was the third time he had to travel to the capital city to hear the case.

“I did not come down to ‘makan angin’ (sight-seeing),” the trial judge told the court, adding, “I am ready to proceed with the case at any time.”

Chan was charged in the Sessions Court in Putrajaya on February 28 last year with three counts of cheating then-Prime Minister Tun Abdullah Ahmad Badawi of a whopping RM1.9 billion over the trans-shipment project between 2004 and 2006.

He faces up to five years’ jail on each count.

The project was initially tagged at RM1.1 billion after it was mooted by Dr Ling in 1997, but more than quadrupled to RM4.6 billion by 2007.

A position review by top accounting firm PricewaterhouseCoopers revealed in 2009 that the total cost including interest from debt repayments could reach RM12.5 billion.
