In February, the court ordered him to return to Singapore to be cross-examined, after he did not answer various questions posed to him by the AGC on oath. He was commenting on the dispute between his father, his aunt Lee Wei Ling, and his uncle, PM Lee, over the fate of the home of his grandfather, the late Lee Kuan Yew, at 38 Oxley Road.
The AGC said that to date, he has refused to answer its questions on oath or produce certain documents referred to in his defence affidavit filed on Sept 24 last year. The AGC also said that his decision to withdraw from the case was to avoid the prospect of answering questions under oath and disclosing information.Neither Li nor the AGC specified the parts of his affidavit that had been removed.Today, Deputy Chief Counsel Low Siew Ling told the court that the AGC sent Li four reminders through email and courier service from Feb 19 to March 23. He did not respond to any of them.
