Najib's 1MDB-linked corruption trial likely to be postponed pending appeal over conviction in SRC International case

KUALA LUMPUR: The hearing for 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB)-linked corruption trial involving RM27mil of SRC International Sdn Bhd's funds is likely to be pushed to a later date pending the decision in Datuk Seri Najib Razak's appeal over his conviction in the RM42mil corruption case, also involving funds from SRC International.

The High Court was informed here on Wednesday (July 28) that both the prosecution and the defence in the case were applying for the case to be postponed pending the decision in Najib's appeal at the Court of Appeal.
