KUALA LUMPUR (Jan 6): The criminal breach of trust (CBT) trial of former premier Datuk Seri Najib Razak and former Treasury secretary-general Tan Sri Mohd Irwan Serigar Abdullah involving RM6.6 billion of government funds for payments made to International Petroleum Investment Co (IPIC) will still be held at the High Court in September and October this year.
This is despite the uncertainty with regards to the progress of Najib s ongoing 1Malaysia Development Bhd-Tanore (1MDB-Tanore) trial, as the 10th prosecution witness, 1MDB former CEO Mohd Hazem Abdul Rahman is still testifying.
Justice Datuk Muhammad Jamil Hussin decided to maintain the dates after Najib s lead counsel Tan Sri Muhammad Shafee Abdullah confirmed that the dates were still suitable, but inquired whether the court still wanted to deliberate over whether it would hear the case or not as the 1MDB-Tanore trial is not expected to end by then.
