Najib's 1MDB trial: G2G meeting on yacht did not follow proper channels, court told


KUALA LUMPUR: A purported government-to-government (G2G) meeting that took place during Datuk Seri Najib Razak's vacation on a yacht in 2009 did not go through the proper and formal channels and had caused huge losses to the nation, the High Court told.

Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) senior officer, Nur Aida Arifin, testified that there was a meeting between Najib and fugitive businessman Low Taek Jho (also known as Jho Low) with Prince Turki of Saudi Arabia and Tarek Obaid, who is the PetroSaudi International Ltd (PSI) director, during Najib's family holiday.
