Pressure mounts: Ahmad Zahid at the KL High Court complex yesterday. — RAJA FAISAL HISHAN/The Star
KUALA LUMPUR: After an outcry, the prosecution in Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi’s trial has withdrawn a letter urging the High Court to give priority to the Umno president’s case over Datuk Seri Najib Razak’s 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) case.
Even the trial judge, Justice Collin Lawrence Sequerah, who is also presiding over the IMDB case, was unhappy. No one could dictate what case should be given priority in his court, he said.
