Zahid, Najib failed to determine whether ‘donations’ were illegal


KUALA LUMPUR: The prosecution team in Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi’s money laundering trial at the High Court described the case against the Umno president as similar to Datuk Seri Najib Razak’s SRC International Sdn Bhd case.

Deputy public prosecutor Harris Ong Mohd Jeffery Ong in his submission yesterday said this was because both accused failed to determine whether the money they allegedly received as “donations” were from unlawful or illegal sources.
