KUALA LUMPUR: Datuk Seri Najib Razak has failed to obtain a permanent stay on the proceedings of his criminal breach of trust case with Tan Sri Mohd Irwan Serigar Abdullah, involving RM6.6bil in payment to International Petroleum Investment Company (Ipic).

High Court judge Justice Muhammad Jamil Hussin dismissed the stay application on the grounds that Najib’s lead counsel, Tan Sri Muhammad Shafee Abdullah, had not filed a formal application.
