Court maintains Najib-Arul Kanda 1MDB audit report tampering case for Nov hearing

The Kuala Lumpur High Court today denied the prosecution’s application to postpone the November hearing dates of former prime minister Najib Abdul Razak and former 1MDB CEO Arul Kanda Kandasamy’s case involving the alleged tampering of the sovereign wealth fund’s audit report.

However, Zaini disagreed with the prosecution, adding that the court did not see any issue of clash of the 1MDB audit report tampering trial with any other ongoing court cases involving Najib.At this juncture, Najib’s lead counsel Muhammad Shafee Abdullah concurred with the judge, adding that there is no clash despite Nov 11 being fixed for decision before a separate Kuala Lumpur High Court on whether Najib needs to enter his defence to his RM42 million SRC International case.

“Prosecution, there are no issues ,” Zaini said, ruling that the court would maintain the current 1MDB audit report tampering case trial dates in November.
