Rajan explained to the court that he handed the cheques to a person only identified as Omar, whom he said received them on behalf of the money-changer. “The cheques which I handed over I only inserted the date, the amount, and my signature, with the rest left blank,” he answered Deputy Public Prosecutor Harris Ong Mohd Jeffery Ong.
However, Rajan told the court he is unaware who the recipients Lewis & Co were, saying he did not think much of the matter after he received his Australian dollars from the money changer. Syarul was called to court today where he confirmed that the aforementioned cheques issued by Rajan were indeed cashed into an account registered under Lewis & Co Clients Account.
