Najib’s 1MDB trial: Let former CEO have his say, urges prosecution


KUALA LUMPUR: The prosecution in the 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MBD) trial wants former CEO Mohd Hazem Abdul Rahman to be given the chance to read his witness statement, which has been disputed by the defence as mere “hearsay”.

Hazem, who was the CEO between 2013 and 2015, is the 10th prosecution witness in the trial involving former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak who is accused of misappropriating RM2.28bil from 1MDB's funds.
