KUALA LUMPUR: Datuk Seri Najib Razak did not declare his interest in SRC International Sdn Bhd despite chairing a Cabinet meeting that discussed a memorandum relating to up to RM2bil in government guarantee for the company, the High Court heard.

Former Cabinet deputy secretary-general Tan Sri Mazidah Abdul Majid said based on the minutes of the meeting on Feb 8, 2012, Najib -- who was the adviser emeritus of SRC International -- did not make any declaration of his interest in the 1Malaysia Development Bhd subsidiary nor did any of the Cabinet members ask him to leave the meeting before the memorandum was discussed.
