Khaled Nordin: Najib's trial will clean up Umno's negative image

PETALING JAYA: Newly-appointed Umno vice president Datuk Seri Khaled Nordin (pic) believes that the corruption trial of former premier Datuk Seri Najib Razak will clean up the image of the party in the eyes of the people.

"As a strong believer in our democratic institutions, I believe that this is a good chance to liberate Umno from the constant barrage of negative speculation, especially in relation to SRC International," said Khaled in a statement on Wednesday (July 4).
