Court to hear two discovery applications by Najib on May 31


KUALA LUMPUR: The High Court has fixed May 31 to hear two discovery applications by Datuk Seri Najib Razak to obtain 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB)-linked documents involving investment bank Goldman Sachs and Tan Sri Zeti Akhtar Aziz.

The former prime minister filed the first of the two applications on March 24 when he filed a notice of motion to compel the prosecution in his RM2.28bil 1MDB trial to disclose banking documents linked to Zeti, the former Bank Negara governor, on claims that her family received monies from fugitive financier Low Taek Jho, also known as Jho Low.
