Counsel: Anina cannot sue Najib

KUALA LUMPUR: Anina Saadudin (pic) has no legal standing to sue Umno president Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak over the RM2.6bil political donation that is for the use of the party, a High Court heard.

Yesterday, Najib’s lead counsel Datuk Mohd Hafarizam Harun argued that under Section 9 (c) of the Societies Act, only a public officer of the party was competent enough to sue for Umno’s interest.
