“(The threats) may come from the previous Government, not necessarily from Najib but his people or supporters..."

Amhari, who was the former Prime Minister’s special officer, said he did not make any claims for the trips from the Prime Minister’s Department, as they were considered “secret missions”.

Amhari, the eighth prosecution witness in the 1MDB-Tanore trial, however, denied the allegation.

Najib's lawyer Tan Sri Muhammad Shafee Abdullah, who cross-examined Amhari at the High Court today, accused Amhari of protecting Low, who is also known as Jho Low.

Tan Sri Muhammad Shafee Abdullah, the lead defence counsel of Datuk Seri Najib Razak in the 1MDB-Tanore trial, also claimed that the federal government was initially reluctant to take over TIA, and blamed its takeover on Terengganu's interference in TIA's investment decision.

The government will now stop approving new independent power production projects that come with power purchase agreements.

Jamaluddin's half-brother Mohamad Najeb Ali said Nur Anis was not involved in the management of the companies owned by her father, until after his passing in 2015.

Shafee told the High Court here today that Najib is expected to miss tomorrow's hearing as well due to his condition.

“I delete my emails annually so that my email [inbox] will have the capacity to receive more emails,” said Amhari.

Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor was said to have talked to Jho Low on the phone and that her voice could be heard loudly.
