GEORGE TOWN: The corruption case of former Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng (pic) has been postponed to July 30, while his lawyers are asking for the charges to be dropped. High Court Judge Datuk Hadhariah Syed Ismail fixed the date when the case came up for case management on Monday (May 21). Outside the courtroom, Ramkarpal said they would propose to the new A-G that the charges against Lim should be dropped. Gobind is being sworn in as the Communications and Multimedia Minister while Lim is being sworn in as the Finance Minister. Phang’s lawyer Datuk V.Sithambaram said he would also be making a similar representation to the new A-G on the charges against his client.
