“And I don’t intend at all to mislead this court, and I am very respectful of Yang Arif and respectful of this honourable court. Once again I apologise for the confusion,” he said to the judge while standing up from the accused’s dock. Earlier this morning, Zahid’s lawyer Hisyam Teh Poh Teik said that Zahid had intended to meet with Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin, but was “late to Putrajaya” and had met instead with Muhyiddin’s political secretary.

“My Lord, in this case I also have instructions taken that the accused person has the highest of respect to the court and My Lord. This can be seen by the conduct of the accused person. At every trial date, the accused person is present much earlier than the appointed time except for one day,” he said, referring to a day where Zahid was slightly late due to the traffic.

At that time, Zahid did not present any documents during the court proceedings to back his reason for seeking the postponement of the trial.
