‘Woman rape claim retraction against Paul Yong is hearsay’
A Ipoh High Court judge is of the view that the testimony of the lawyer of an Indonesian domestic worker that she has retracted her rape allegations against former Perak executive councillor Paul Yong was mere hearsay.
Judge Abdul Wahab Mohamed gave the opinion today regarding the additional evidence that Yong sought to rely on to quash his rape conviction as well as eight-year jail sentence and two rotan strokes.
