Tenom: A woman told the Magistrate’s Court here yesterday how Ebit Irawan Ibrahim Lew, popularly known as Ebit Lew, had discussed the types of sexual treatment he desired.

The prosecution’s ninth witness and the case complainant, who is in her 40s, related that the discussion occurred during video calls and Whatsapp messages between the two that were sparked when she asked about the lewd messages she received from him.

“From there, he started telling me about the sexual treatment he gets from his wife and what he really wants (sexually),” she said in a cross examination by deputy public prosecutor Nor Azizah Mohamad in front of magistrate Nur Asyraf Zolhani.
