KUALA LUMPUR: Datuk Seri Najib Razak's defence contended that the former prime minister endorsement of the acquisition of an independent power plant (IPP) was made much later, after the idea was initially proposed by other members of the 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) board of directors.
Najib's counsel Wan Azwan Aiman Wan Fakhruddin said due to this fact, it was clear that the former prime minister could not have devised the scheme for his benefit.
