Gan was convicted on 27 August 2020 for knowingly furnishing a misleading statement relating to Transmile Group Berhad’s revenue in the company’s Quarterly Report on Unaudited Consolidated Results for the Financial Year ended 31 December 2006. The misleading statement on the revenue amount comprised over RM333million fictitious sales. Gan was convicted and sentenced by the Sessions Court to one-day imprisonment and a fine of RM2.5 million. Gan filed an appeal against his conviction and SC filed a cross-appeal against the sentence imposed by the Sessions Court against Gan.
The High Court had since dismissed Gan’s appeal following his failure to appear before the High Court for the hearing of his appeal. The court has set 13 December 2021 for the SC’s cross-appeal against the sentence, pending the execution of the warrant of arrest against Gan.
