‘I did not complain as it would be like suspecting Najib’


KUALA LUMPUR: Former 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) chairman Tan Sri Mohd Bakke Salleh said he did not complain about irregularities in 1MDB to Datuk Seri Najib Razak as it would be like he was suspecting the former prime minister of being involved.

The 68-year-old witness said this in the High Court while being re-examined by lead prosecutor Datuk Seri Gopal Sri Ram in the ex-premier’s trial over the misappropriation of RM2.3bil in funds from 1MDB.
