Guan Eng- Go for me, leave my family alone

Former Penang chief minister Lim Guan Eng and businessperson Phang Li Koon have claimed trial to graft charges, while Lim's wife Betty Chew has been charged with money laundering at the Butterworth Sessions Court today.

All charges are in relation to alleged dealings with private company Excel Property Management and Consultancy Sdn Bhd.

Speaking at a press conference after the hearing Lim said that it was an act of political vengeance against him and added that the company involved did not even get the project.
