Zeti’s not the one on trial but Najib is, says prosecutor


KUALA LUMPUR: Datuk Seri Najib Razak’s application for discovery on documents linked to former Bank Negara governor Tan Sri Dr Zeti Akhtar Aziz was a “collateral attack” on the issues raised in his RM2.28bil 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) trial, the High Court heard.

Ad hoc prosecutor Datuk Seri Gopal Sri Ram, in his submission, said the application was frivolous and the documents were irrelevant to the ongoing criminal trial.
