Soh Chee Wen's lawyer today claimed that the words in the two charges against the high-profile businessman are confusing and did not provide sufficient information to clearly describe his direct involvement in the alleged wrongdoings.
Counsel Francis Ng Aik Guan is requesting the Shah Alam Sessions Court to summon the prosecution to amend the charges or provide further information to the charges against his client.
Soh is facing two charges of allegedly defrauding the now defunct brokerage, Omega Securities Sdn Bhd, of RM521 million under Section 87A(a) of the Securities Industry Act 1983.
In his submission before Justice Suraya Othman, Ng told the court that his client had earlier stated that he was not sure how he is linked to the two charges against him in his affidavit.
