Najib's SRC trial: High Court dismisses application to compel witness to be interviewed ahead of testimony


KUALA LUMPUR: The High Court here has dismissed an application by Datuk Seri Najib Razak (pic) who sought to compel an investigating officer from the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) to be interviewed by his defence team before taking the stand as a witness in the SRC International Sdn Bhd trial.

In his ruling, Justice Mohd Nazlan Mohd Ghazali said the former prime minister's right to a fair trial would not be compromised by the officer's refusal to be interviewed prior to testifying because he would be under oath during his testimony.
