1MDB’s bid to have joint trial against ex-bosses rejected


KUALA LUMPUR: 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) failed to have its US$6.59bil suit against its former top bosses to be heard jointly with a different suit before another High Court judge.

High Court Judicial Commissioner (JC) Raja Ahmad Mohzanuddin Shah Raja Mohzan dismissed 1MDB’s application for the joint trial and ordered the company to pay costs of RM4,000 each to its former chief executive officer Arul Kanda Kandasamy and former chairman Tan Sri Mohd Irwan Serigar Abdullah.
