SINGAPORE - The trial against City Harvest founder Kong Hee and five others accused of misusing church funds resumed on Tuesday morning, with two defence lawyers claiming that the prosecution had not done enough to prove there was a case against their clients.
Mr Edwin Tong, representing Kong, said that the prosecution was asking the court to "draw inferences of conspiracy on facts which are completely innocuous".
For example, even though Kong was the founder of City Harvest and had started the Crossover Project - which used secular music created by his wife, singer Ho Yeow Sun, to evangelise - these were non-controversial facts known to church members, the lawyer said.
Mr Tong also pointed out - as the defence lawyers had done in an earlier part of the trial - that the church did not suffer any financial losses, and all of the City Harvest funds went into furthering the Crossover Project.
