It was 1MDB management who duped BOD, not Najib, lawyer asserts


KUALA LUMPUR: The management of 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) had conned the company's board of directors (BOD) and former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak into entering a joint venture with PetroSaudi International Ltd (PSI), the High Court heard on Wednesday (March 23).

Lead counsel Tan Sri Muhammad Shafee Abdullah suggested this during cross-examination here to witness Tan Sri Ismee Ismail, who is a former 1MDB non-executive director.
