Bringing up 1MDB irregularities was like suspecting Najib himself, witness tells court


KUALA LUMPUR: Former 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) chairman Tan Sri Mohd Bakke Salleh told the High Court here that he did not complain about irregularities involving 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) to Datuk Seri Najib Razak as it would have been the same as suspecting the former prime minister was behind it.

The 68-year-old witness was being re-examined by lead prosecutor Datuk Seri Gopal Sri Ram in the former premier's trial over the misappropriation of RM2.3bil in 1MDB funds here on Thursday (May 19).
