JUDGMENT

Liza Chan Sow Keng JC:

[1] There are four applications before the Court - enclosure ("Encl") 418 and Encl 420 made by the 3rd defendant whilst Encls 425 & 428 are made by the 2nd defendant to cross-examine the plaintiff and Lau Yoke Leong ("LYL") on their affidavits filed in support of Encl 399. All four applications were filed pursuant to O 38 r 2(2) of the Rules of 2012 ("ROC 2012") and/or under the inherent jurisdiction of the Court.

[2] On 8 April 2022, I dismissed all four applications with costs. As the applications were related, it is convenient to deal with all four enclosures in one judgment. This judgment as such contains the full reasons for dismissal of Encl 418, Encl 420, Encl 425 and 428.
