“We have instructions to seek leave from the Federal Court to appeal against the Court of Appeal decision."

The appeal was supposed to end today, but Najib's defence team could not conclude their reply to the prosecution's case.

... which showed Naijb's direct and personal interest in the matter.

Mohd Hassan, 68, “retired by rotation under article 94 of the company’s constitution at the 23rd AGM of the company held on April 22, 2021".

Datuk V Sithambaram: Based on the evidence adduced, there is no basis to say that the judge was the second prosecutor. There was no basis in calling the judge hopelessly incompetent or demonstrated incompetence. This submission is made to save the integrity of this ground of judgement, to ensure that the due administration of justice is not in any way taken.

Ad hoc prosecutor Datuk V Sithambaram pointed out that Najib did not explain why it never crossed his mind to find out how his accounts continued to have sufficient funds for his "limitless expense" despite the so-called Arab donations drying up. 

Ad hoc prosecutor Datuk V Sithambaram said that based on the BBM messages, it could be established that Najib must have had knowledge of his finances as he had tasked Jho Low to ensure the accounts had funds for him, to gauge how much he could spend from those accounts.

Najib had failed to rebut that Nik Faisal was his messenger for matters relating to SRC and therefore had clear control over SRC.

The prosecution asserted that the evidence of his conduct had established the former prime minister's clear initial plan to swindle money from the company.

Prosecutor Datuk V Sithambaram said the fact that Najib chaired the Cabinet meetings showed that he was indeed personally involved in the decisions to grant the GGs for KWAP’s loan to 1Malaysia Development Bhd's (1MDB) former subsidiary SRC.
