Ad hoc prosecutor V Sithambaram says any dispute would be between the company and the bank, not Najib.

Court of Appeal panel says Lim Kian Aik was confirmed to be suffering from acute coronary syndrome.

Najib is on trial for four charges of using his position to obtain bribes totalling RM2.3 billion from 1MDB funds and 21 charges of money laundering involving the same amount.

Hamzah Zainudin says the guidelines will be based on existing laws and will be acceptable to those from every group.

Ad hoc prosecutor V Sithambaram says the company had nothing to show for all its talk about investment plans.

He is also seeking aggravated and exemplary damages of RM500,000 respectively.

Ad hoc prosecutor V Sithambaram compares this to the RM2.6 billion donation earlier received by the former prime minister.

Defence lawyer Farhan Read also says criminal law is not the proper avenue for this as Najib was already held to account in GE14.

Alvin Goh and his brother Goh Yeong Hui claimed trial to all seven charges against them.

His lawyer says the former prime minister believed that the funds were the remainder of donations from the Saudi royal family.

Hasanah Ab Hamid had been accused of criminal breach of trust involving RM50.4 million belonging to the government.

Deputy public prosecutor says the prosecution received instructions from the Attorney-General’s Chambers not to object to the stay application by Abdul Azeez Abdul Rahim.
