SRC trial involving Najib considered ‘worst case’ of abuse of position, says High Court judge

KUALA LUMPUR: The SRC International Sdn Bhd trial involving Datuk Seri Najib Razak (pic) has been regarded as the worst case of abuse of position, criminal breach of trust (CBT) and money laundering by the High Court judge who convicted the former prime minister.

Justice Mohd Nazlan Mohd Ghazali said he would not hesitate to characterise the case as one that fell within the range of "the worst kind" of abuse of position, CBT and money laundering not only because of how the crimes were committed but also because of the huge sum of money involved and the element of public impact.
