KUALA LUMPUR: The corruption trial of former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak is being cut short for the week, after both sides agreed to postpone it to next week. Ad hoc prosecutor Datuk V.

Sithambaram applied for the trial to continue on Monday instead, as both sides have a prior engagement on Friday .

Before the prosecution could call its sixth witness ABS Trendmaster Sdn Bhd interior designer Zulkarnain Mohd, 46, to the stand, the defence objected, arguing that he was an irrelevant witness. "I propose to enquire with the prosecution why this witness is being called. We are not as advantaged as the prosecution, we can only guess what the prosecution intends to bring up," he said.

Thomas argued that if the objection is allowed, the defence can question every time they think evidence might be troublesome.
