He says it was Muhammad Shafee Abdullah's incompetencies that led to a string of legal setbacks for Najib Razak in the SRC International case.

The lawyer says the petition sent by Najib Razak is different from the one submitted by Anwar Ibrahim a number of years ago.

The former prime minister's lawyer says the Federal Court proceedings last August did not accord him a reasonable opportunity to argue his case and denied his lawyers the time needed to prepare for it.

The Kuala Lumpur High Court rules that the prosecution failed to establish a prima facie case against him.

The High Court will decide tomorrow whether to free him or order him to enter his defence.

Collin Lawrence Sequerah says if Muhammad Shafee Abdullah cannot cross-examine the witnesses, Wan Aizuddin Wan Mohammed will have to do it himself.

Muhammad Shafee Abdullah will be on medical leave until Oct 9.

However, he maintains that the media statement was accurate and not an exaggeration.

The senior deputy public prosecutor hits out at a media statement given by the lawyer, calling it an attack on the prosecution.

The court rejects his argument of special circumstances warranting a stay of the proceedings.

He says he is 'back on board' and will be conducting the former prime minister's review application.

He says the former prime minister is being treated like any other prisoner.
