Deputy Principal District Judge Luke Tan to review message logs alongside evidence from Yudhishthra Nathan

District Judge Luke Tan says that while the messages in question were sent after Oct 4, 2021, they might relate to the testimonies of Mr Yudishthra Nathan and Ms Loh Pei Ying about their meeting with Pritam Singh on October 12, 2021.

Mr Nathan and Ms Loh had testified in court that it was during this meeting that Singh told them he met Ms Raeesah Khan on Oct 3, 2021, and had told Ms Khan he would not judge her regardless of whether she maintained her lie or clarified it.

ā€œSo the issue of their credibility especially leading up to the 12th, and even on the 12th, is an issue. Because it goes to whether their evidence is to be believed or not,ā€ says Judge Tan.

Deputy Attorney-General Ang Cheng Hock says ā€œdifferences between them on the 12th is actually very narrowā€, but adds that he will deal with this at the appropriate time.

He adds that the prosecution will present one set of unredacted messages from Mr Nathan from Oct 4 to Oct 12, as well as a set with redactions that was submitted to the Committee of Privileges, and the reasons for the redaction.

The Judge says he will need to review the documents alongside Mr Nathan’s evidence, before making a decision on the matter.

The hearing has ended for the day and will resume at 11am tomorrow.

Not privy to the information about the messages

But from the defense's argument, it seems like they don't have a copy of the redacted messages, especially the reasons for them be redacted, suggesting these messages are not public information
exactly, and this seems to be very wrong in terms of the due court process. Some of the redacted material could have been useful in the defence's arguments.
