KUALA LUMPUR: Former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak had never spoken about meeting the late King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia in 2010, where the King purportedly pledged to give Najib donations, says a Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) investigating officer.
PUTRAJAYA: Datuk Seri Najib Razak’s defence that he believed he had received funds from the Saudi King’s donation was nothing short of a weak fabrication and self-serving evidence, the Court of Appeal heard. Ad hoc prosecutor Datuk V. Sithambaram said evidence showed clearly that Najib could not have believed that the money, being the subject matter of the charges in the SRC International Sdn Bhd case, were Arab donations. Sithambaram was submitting the prosecution’s rebuttal in the hearing of an appeal filed by Najib against his conviction and sentence in the SRC case here on Wednesday (April 21).
