    I’m not sure as I’m not a legal expert. I can say that if they know that you’re not going to be honest, there’s no reason for your testimony.

      They can put charges on you for lying in court as a witness. You can get 6 months to 15 years in prison if you lie under outh.

      And if you don’t want to say anything as a witness, you also get detention for up to 6 months.

      Thats what I figured out after a quick Google search at least
