Najib walking about like a ‘free man’, says Mahathir

PETALING JAYA: Two political veterans have expressed concerns about the political ambitions of Datuk Seri Najib Razak even after the Court of Appeal upheld the High Court’s conviction of him over the misappropriation of SRC International Sdn Bhd funds.

Former prime minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad said although he agreed that the judge had every right to grant a stay of execution pending appeal to the Federal Court, the decision made Najib appear like “an innocent man”.
