KUALA LUMPUR:  A High Court has struck out a civil suit filed by PKR and five others against Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak (pic) implying that he had acted corruptly and illegally in receiving RM2.6bil in his personal accounts.

The Election Commission (EC) succeeded in its bid to convince the court to strike out the civil action aimed at nullifying the results of the 13th general election and set aside the results of each of the 222 parliamentary seats.
