PUTRAJAYA, April 4 — The media’s publishing of claims regarding the alleged use of money for items such as shopping at fashion store Chanel and Datuk Seri Najib Razak’s home renovation is why a gag order on his trial should be issued, his lawyer highlighted today.
The points that Harvinderjit referred to include the attorney-general’s remarks that he would establish that Najib’s credit card was charged in December 2014 for US$130,625 for expenses made at Chanel in Honolulu in Hawaii, US. Earlier, Harvinderjit said he had previously asked the courts to at least issue a directive or advisory to the public to let them know what can or cannot be published in relation to Najib’s trial, noting the “highly-publicised” nature of the trial.
The other judges on the panel today are Chief Judge of Malaya Tan Sri Zaharah Ibrahim, Chief Judge of Sabah and Sarawak Datuk Seri David Wong Dak Wah, Tan Sri Ramly Ali, Datuk Tengku Maimun Tuan Mat, Tan Sri Idrus Harun and Datuk Nallini Pathmanathan. “So the destination is the High Court, the only disagreement is the road to the destination of High Court,” he said.
