Harvinderjit accuses Azizul of lying10.15am: Harvinderjit suggests that Azizul is lying because he thinks it was not feasible for the BNM officer to classify investigations under Section 4 of Amlatfa only after looking at the documents for 34 minutes after he received them, without having been briefed about investigating the case under the Act by the investigating officer.
Moreover, Azizul had earlier said the investigations were over obligation of reporting by Ambank.
Azizul denies that he was lying.
Harvinderjit: You did not call the investigation officer (Ahmad Farhan Sharifuddin). As a raiding officer, you formed your own opinion that an offence was made.
Azizul: I cannot remember how the decision was made.
Harvinder: Come on, tuan. You have been IO (investigation officer) for seven years. It is remarkable that as a raiding officer, you made your own assumption that another offence was made when the raid had no briefing on [the transactions].
I suggest you are not telling the truth. Are you trying to hide something here?
Azizul: I disagree.
Harvinderjit: Obligation of reporting is the common practice for banking institution. Section 4 offence is related to specific transactions. In your police report, in the 34 minutes between receiving the information about specific transactions from Ms Uma Devi, you formed an opinion that there is also an offence under Section 4 that is related to specific transactions.
Azizul: Possibly. I cannot remember.
Harvinderjit: There is no possibly here, only yes or no. You are not being honest.
Azizul: I disagree.
Yesterday, the witness testified that he received the documents from Ambank Raja Chulan branch manager R Uma Devi at 9.15pm and 9.30pm on July 6, 2015.
The witness also denies receiving a briefing to "not provide an honest statement" before testifying at the trial, as alleged by Harvinderjit.
During re-examination by Datuk Suhaimi, Azizul says he was at the raid from morning until night.
The BNM officer says he scrutinised all the documents given to him by Uma Devi.
After several interjections by Havinderjit on Suhaimi's style of questioning, Thomas stands up as the public prosecutor for the court to give some leeway to the prosecution.
"They have been questioning this witness for five to six hours and we only wanted to ask six general questions," the AG said.
Justice Nazlan asks Suhaimi to refer to what portion of Havinderjit's question which he wished to clarify with Azizul."
