I couldn\u2019t find a clinic that provided Sinopharm, so I thought Thomas could provide the service,\u201d she said, without giving details of how she knew Chua.<\/p>\n<p

data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">Madam Mehrajunnisha said Chua arranged to meet her several days before the jab, where she said he told her that there was an option to be \u201cvaccinated but not vaccinated\u201d. <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">She understood his words to mean that there was an option to take a fake vaccine, but admitted that she did not clarify as she was anxious about meeting the vaccination deadline. <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">On the day of her appointment on Jan 14, 2022, Madam Mehrajunnisha and her husband visited the clinic Quah ran in Chong Pang. <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">In a statement to MOH officers, she said Quah presented her with a box of Sinopharm vaccine and another bottle with an unknown clear liquid. <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">\u201cAfter he showed me the bottle, I trusted what he was doing and went along with it,\u201d she said, adding that she looked away when the injection was administered. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"landscape inline-media-wrapper\"

Quah, who are facing charges over allegedly conspiring to falsely inform the Health Promotion Board that\u00a0patients received Covid-19 vaccinations when they had not.<\/p>\n<p

text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">When asked by Quah\u2019s lawyer, Mr Adrian Wee from Lighthouse Law, if it was fair to say that she did not know what she was injected with, Madam Mehrajunnisha replied: \u201cI have no knowledge.\u201d <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">The lawyer then highlighted two statements Madam Mehrajunnisha gave to MOH officers \u2013 the first at about 1am on Jan 21, 2022, and the second at about 11.40am on the same day. <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">\u201cI am going to suggest to you that the reason you mentioned saline in your second statement is because the word saline was fed to you,\u201d said Mr Wee, who added that this was done during the first statement. <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">He continued: \u201cIn reality, you don\u2019t know and still don\u2019t know today what was in the bottle that Quah showed you?\u201d <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">Madam Mehrajunnisha agreed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">During further questioning by Mr Wee, she said she assumed she must have received a fake vaccine when MOH officers picked her up for investigations. <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">She said: \u201cThe officers came to my home and said I was being investigated for fake vaccine.\u201d <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">When Mr Wee said it was possible that she had received a shot of Sinopharm, Madam Mehrajunnisha agreed with him.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">Asked by the lawyer about a blood test that was administered to her when she was at MOH for her first interview, Madam Mehrajunnisha said she assumed it was to check if she had been vaccinated. <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">She added that she was never informed of her blood test results, but later received an update on her HealthHub app, which stated that she had tested positive for Covid-19 antibodies. <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">Madam Mehrajunnisha told Mr Wee her family members could have infected her. <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">Chua, who is representing himself, cross-examined Madam Mehrajunnisha later. <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">When he asked Madam Mehrajunnisha if he had ever told her that the vaccine was fake, she replied: \u201cYou mentioned the vaccine had side effects, and that you provided services for what I thought was a fake vaccine.\u201d <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">Chua said: \u201cThat is your assumption, but did I ever tell you it was fake?\u201d Madam Mehrajunnisha said she could not remember. <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">He then asked if he ever told her that the injection would contain saline, or if her vaccination records would be forged. <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">Madam Mehrajunnisha replied \u201cno\u201d to both questions.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">Deputy Public\u00a0Prosecutor Kelvin Chong re-examined the prosecution witness, and pointed out that she had previously told the court in September that Quah showed her the clear liquid and told her: \u201cThis is what I am going to administer.\u201d <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">She said then that she understood the clear liquid was saline. <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\"
