KUALA LUMPUR: The high profile corruption trial of Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak (pic) – the first in a series of charges – is scheduled to start tomorrow but this may be stalled due to a last-minute application by the defence to stay the hearing.

Najib, the first former Prime Minister of Malaysia to find himself in the dock, has filed an application to stay his trial over the seven charges involving RM42mil in funds belonging to SRC International Sdn Bhd.
