PUTRAJAYA: Income tax arrears amounting to RM1.69bil and RM37.6mil must be paid by Datuk Seri Najib Razak and his son Datuk Mohd Nazifuddin, respectively, to the Inland Revenue Board (LHDN).

This followed a decision by the Federal Court’s five-member bench led by Court of Appeal president Justice Abang Iskandar Abang Hashim in dismissing Najib and Nazifuddin’s appeal against the summary judgments entered against them over income tax arrears.
