Soh and his co-conspirator Quah Su-Ling were on May 5 found guilty of several of the charges they were facing under three groups of criminal conspiracy including for forced trading, price manipulation and deception. Soh was convicted of 180 of the 188 charges he faced while Quah was found guilty for 169 of the 178 charges she faced.
Lawyers defending John Soh Chee Wen and Quah Su-Ling crossed swords with prosecutors today over the length of the sentence that should be passed to convicted masterminds of the 2013 penny stock saga.
The defence counsel of Soh, N Sreenivasan argued against deputy public prosecutors' (DPP) push for a 40-year jail term.
