On Tuesday, Oh appealed against his jail term and asked for a fine instead, with a new set of lawyers led by Senior Counsel Tan Chee Meng from WongPartnership.
Mr Tan questioned the prosecution's purported change in stance, asking why they had originally asked for a fine but were now asking for the one-week jail term to be upheld.
He asked what changed that caused the prosecution to make a "180-degree turn".
He provided letters from the prosecution, claiming that there was an agreement that if Oh pleaded guilty, he would be given a fine.
