KUALA LUMPUR: The High Court Thursday (Aug 29) ordered the prosecution team handling the 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB)'s alleged audit report tampering case, involving former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak and former 1MDB chief executive officer Arul Kanda Kandasamy, to speed up the process of handing the pre-trial documents to the defence.

High Court judge Justice Mohamed Zaini Mazlan ordered the prosecution, led by deputy public prosecutor Rozaliana Zakaria, to hand over all the documents needed by the defence so that the trial, originally set to start on Nov 18, will not be delayed.
