SRC trial: Najib says ‘only sometimes’ checked bank balance before issuing cheques

Thursday, 19 Dec 2019 12:44 PM MYTFormer prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak leaves the Kuala Lumpur High Court December 19, 2019. — Picture by Shafwan Zaidon

Under cross-examination from ad hoc prosecutor Datuk V. Sithambaram, Najib told the High Court in his defence that he trusted the cheques issued in his name would go through without a problem based purely on the word of his former principal private secretary, the late Datuk Azlin Alias.

Najib said this was the normal practice for him when it came to managing his personal finances, regardless of cheques being issued from his Prime Minister’s Office or his private residence in Jalan Langgak Duta. "I had a sense there was enough money. If they said there was not enough, then it’s a different story. It's their job to make sure there is enough money in the system,” he told the court.

The ultimate luxury of life: Buying branded goods without looking at the tag, issuing cheques for large amounts without looking at balance.

NajibRazak, Econs grad, politician since 1974, Minister/DPM/FM/PM, 1MDB advisor, Khazanah Chairman etc used 6th sense or voodoo to judge whether there was enough money in his personal bank a/c when issuing cheques for millions of ringgit? Do pigs fly?

I think he is telling the truth. He knew that jho lo would take care of everything.

Najib is making judge's decision easier.

And this was our Finance Minister?

Lost word of Najib stupidity !

Geez. 🤦‍♂️I'm running out of adjectives for DSN NajibRazak
