Zeti on two days MC, unable to testify in Najib’s 1MDB trial tomorrow

: The High Court today was told that a key witness in Datuk Seri Najib Abdul Razak’s 1Malaysia Development Berhad trial, former Bank Negara Malaysia governor Tan Sri Zeti Akhtar Aziz will not be able to take the stand tomorrow as she is on medical leave for two days.

Last month, the prosecution said they will be calling Zeti as a prosecution witness in the trial after Najib’s lead counsel Tan Sri Muhammad Shafee Abdullah posted a question against the 39th prosecution witness, former AmBank non-executive director Cheah Tek Kuang, 75, about the presence of the fugitive businessman, Low Taek Jho or Jho Low at Zeti’s house.

“This has caused Datuk Seri Najib, apart from not knowing the identity of the individual who has authorised the interception of communication mandated under Section 43, he was also left in the dark and precarious position of not knowing the contents of the other recordings,” he said.
