Yudhishthra Nathan says Pritam Singh never told Raeesah Khan to take ownership and responsibility

Pritam Singh’s lawyer Andre Jumabhoy asks Mr Yudhishthra Nathan if Singh had told him about an Oct 3 conversation he had with Ms Raeesah Khan, in the meeting on Oct 12, 2021 between himself, Singh and Ms Loh Pei Ying.

Mr Nathan says Singh told him that “he had thought that the anecdote (about the sexual assault victim) could possibly come up the next day, on Oct 4”, and that was why Singh had visited Ms Khan on Oct 3.

The defence lawyer goes on to ask Mr Nathan if Singh mentioned that he said he would not judge Ms Khan. Mr Nathan says yes.

Mr Jumabhoy asks if Mr Nathan did not clarify what Singh meant when he said he would not judge Ms Khan. Mr Nathan says he did not feel a need to do so at that point.

Following that, Mr Jumabhoy asks if Mr Nathan recalled Singh telling Ms Khan to “take ownership and responsibility (for telling a lie in Parliament)”.

Mr Nathan says “Absolutely not, he never used those words”.

Mr Jumabhoy asks if Mr Nathan would agree that it is something Singh could have said. No, says Mr Nathan.

His memory works in astounding ways.

CNA (https://www.channelnewsasia.com/sin...nathan-ang-check-hock-andre-jumabhoy-4696621?):

He said that the exercise of comparing the witness' answers before the COP and in court would therefore not be "adversely affected" by the defence not having the documents.

He added that while there was no doubt as to the credibility of Mr Nathan, this was the case for all witnesses.

ST Live Updates:

While there is “no doubt” the credibility of Mr Nathan is an issue as with the credibility of all witnesses, the messages already submitted as evidence can and already have been used to test the accuracy of the evidence given by the witnesses, including Mr Nathan.

The CNA story omitted the words “is an issue”. Why ah?

I could be wrong but the meanings seem different.

There was no way he would have known if PS said that because HE WASN'T EVEN THERE.

Judge rejects defence’s application to get full list of Yudhishthra Nathan’s redacted and unredacted messages to COP

Deputy Principal District Judge Luke Tan rejects the defence’s application to get the full set of Mr Yudhishthra Nathan’s unredacted messages from Oct 4 to 12, 2021, and his redacted messages which were submitted to the Committee of Privileges (COP).

The judge says he has carefully examined the documents, and is satisfied that none of the messages are relevant to the guilt or innocence of Pritam Singh.

He adds that the messages do not undermine the prosecution’s case or strengthen the defence’s case in the context of the criminal trial.

As the redactions were done for the purpose of the specific inquiry by the COP, the scope and basis of the redactions are not relevant to the current criminal trial, he says.

The judge also notes that a list of unredacted messages by Mr Nathan, as well as the full list of redacted and unredacted messages by Ms Loh Pei Ying have already been admitted as evidence for the trial.

While there is “no doubt” the credibility of Mr Nathan is an issue, as with the credibility of all witnesses, the messages already submitted as evidence can and already have been used to test the accuracy of the evidence given by the witnesses, including Mr Nathan.
then why cannot see anyway? nothing right? see lor?
