KUALA LUMPUR, June 28 — A former company executive director told the Sessions Court today he was acting in the company’s interest by following orders to prepare forged documents intended to disguise cash payments as bribes to former chief minister Lim Guan Eng in relation to the Penang undersea tunnel project.

Azli was senior vice president of finance and corporate service in CZCSB and in charge of managing the company accounts including the preparation of payment vouchers, cheques and invoices. However, the witness disagreed with the lawyer’s suggestion that he alongside Zarul Ahmad and Azli were ‘master’ fabricators.

Ibrahim had earlier confirmed the forgeries involving the payment vouchers and invoices were issued under three relatively inactive companies: Sinar Bina Consultancy Services , Jurutera Konsult Maju Sdn Bhd and Bintang Ria Engineering . “However, Datuk Zarul did not inform me of the amount and method of payment for bribes given to Lim Guan Eng,” he said.
