SRC trial: Witness admits she 'may have' used own funds to regularise Najib's account


Not a target: Najib says he regards Kuok as a family friend.

KUALA LUMPUR: Datuk Seri Najib Razak's former relationship manager told the court she "may have" taken RM55, 000 out of her own pocket to cover an overdraft in his account ending with the number 906 to avoid a cheque from bouncing.

Joanna Yu told the High Court that she could not get funds from fugitive businessman Low Taek Jho, who is also known as Jho Low, who often told her to refer to his secretary Josie or his associate Kee Kok Thiam for funds when Najib's accounts were overdrawn.
