Najib has to answer charges

KUALA LUMPUR: Come Dec 3, former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak will have to answer the allegations that he had established SRC International Sdn Bhd for his private interest and used his position for the gratification of RM42mil of SRC funds to his own advantage.

High Court judge Justice Mohd Nazlan Mohd Ghazali said Najib’s interest in SRC, a subsidiary of sovereign wealth fund 1Malaysia Development Bhd, could not be characterised as one that was entirely professional in the public office context.
