Najib's 1MDB trial: Prosecution defends credibility of witnesses

KUALA LUMPUR: The prosecution in Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak's trial for the alleged misappropriation of RM2.3bil in 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) funds contended that its key witnesses, despite facing scrutiny from the defence, were credible due to their consistent narrative of the former prime minister's conduct regarding the sovereign wealth fund.

Deputy Public Prosecutor (DPP) Ahmad Akram Gharib said that multiple witnesses testified affirming they acted under the belief that their instructions came directly from Najib.
