5 senior counsels to be "dismissed"

[LITTLEREDDOT]

5 of the 6 defendents in City Harvest happily engaged senior counsels. Now that the church and its members cannot raise funds for paying the lawyers, dot's guess is that the 5 defendents will not be able to afford the senior counsels, will have to downgrade to criminal lawyers (but not the expensive ones like Subhesh); unless, of course, there is 'divine intervention' and some 'kind souls' are paying for the defendents' legal fees.

Singapore's Commissioner of Charities (COC) has warned City Harvest Church about its employees' efforts to raise funds to pay the legal fees of the church's leaders facing criminal charges in court.
At issue is a donation form which surfaced this month seeking funds as a "personal gift" to the six people charged so far.

Commissioner of Charities' response

"The Commissioner of Charities' (COC) office had earlier issued a Restriction Order to the Board of City Harvest Church (CHC) to restrict CHC from paying the legal fees of the six accused persons and entering into transactions relating to payment of services to the suspended individuals and their related entities, without the approval of the COC.
The COC has informed CHC that the church and/or its employees should not be involved in raising funds for the legal expenses or setting up a specific fund for this purpose."
