"We consider this to be a serious matter as if it was indeed the case that the complainant gave false evidence, the applicant would be subjected to grave injustice,” he said. Justice Harmindar also instructed the High Court to certify the additional evidence and provide a statement of its opinion on the case, taking the new evidence into account.

Earlier, Yong’s lawyer Datuk Hisyam Teh Poh Teik sought permission to admit a statement in which the victim retracted her testimony regarding the rape allegation. He said the effect of the document suggests that the victim may have committed perjury. He suggested that the matter regarding the new evidence be sent back to the High Court to determine the authenticity of the documents.
