KUALA LUMPUR, May 30 — Datuk Seri Najib Razak’s trial over the alleged tampering of the auditor-general’s report on 1Malaysia Development Berhad could not proceed as scheduled today as his lead defence lawyer, Tan Sri Muhammad Shafee Abdullah, was ill.
“He has not gotten to the clinic yet but he is going to the clinic and so we will send the MC to the court once he obtains it,” Rahmat told reporters today. With no objections from the prosecution to the application to adjourn the trial due to Shafee being ill, Rahmat confirmed that the High Court allowed Najib’s lawyers’ application to vacate today’s proceedings.
The High Court has scheduled October 21, October 25, October 28 as the replacement dates for the trial dates that could not go on this week, he added. On the first day of this trial on November 18, 2019, the prosecution had already informed the court that it would apply to have Arul Kanda be a prosecution witness in the future at an appropriate stage of the trial, using Section 63 of the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission Act 2009.
