The 79-year-old Singapore-based Malaysian businessman faces charges of abetting and obstructing justice
Property tycoon Ong Beng Seng, who faces two charges in relation to former transport minister S Iswaran’s case, is set to plead guilty in court on July 3.
This was after a pre-trial conference for Ong’s case took place on Tuesday. Court records did not state if he would be pleading guilty to both charges or one charge, and if so, which one.
His bail, which is set at S$800,000 (US$620,000), was extended.
Ong, 79, has been undergoing chemotherapy for bone marrow cancer. He previously obtained permission to travel abroad for medical-related purposes.
