1 abuse of power charge3 criminal breach of trust (CBT) charges3 money laundering chargesClick to view information on judge, prosecution and defence teamAll eyes today will be on the questions by the defence team to their client, Najib Abdul Razak, after he had completed reading out his 243-page prepared witness statement yesterday in the defence stage of his RM42 million SRC International trial
As the 62nd day of hearing resumes before Kuala Lumpur High Court judge Mohd Nazlan Mohd Ghazali this morning, the Muhammad Shafee Abdullah-led defence team is expected to conduct its examination-in-chief of the former prime minister
The lawyers will ask Najib for further clarifications on points raised in the witness statement to strengthen the former finance minister’s defence and try to raise doubt in the prosecution’s case involving seven charges against him for abuse of power, criminal breach of trust and money laundering
SRC International was a former subsidiary of troubled sovereign wealth fund 1MDB, before the company's ownership was transferred to the Minister of Finance Incorporated in 2012
Najib spent three days of proceedings reading out from his witness statement, whereby yesterday alone saw the former SRC International advisor emeritus testified that his credit card spending at luxury stores in Hawaii and Italy were for his wife Rosmah Mansor and diplomacy, respectively
Yesterday also saw Najib telling the court he did not know millions of ringgit of funds from SRC International entered his bank accounts and that it would be insane for him to endorse the transactions
There were at least 46 instances in his witness statement where the former finance minister said he didn't know or had no knowledge in matters pertaining to the SRC International case
