KUALA LUMPUR: Datuk Seri Najib Razak's RM2.28bil 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) has been postponed to Sept 17 as the former prime minister is still warded at the Hospital Kuala Lumpur (HKL) due to acute inflammation of the knee and sleep apnea.

HKL's orthopedic and traumatology department senior consultant Dr Siti Hawa Tahir told the High Court that the medical team needed to monitor Najib's progress after prescribing him with opioids two days ago.
