Najib: Isn’t Shahrol fortunate that I am the accused


KUALA LUMPUR: The former 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) CEO was “lucky” to escape prosecution while the former prime minister ended up in the dock, says Datuk Seri Najib Razak.

In his 525-page witness statement at the High Court here yesterday, Najib pointed his finger at Datuk Shahrol Azral Ibrahim Halmi, whom he claimed had been in cahoots with fugitive businessman Low Taek Jho, or also known as Jho Low, and responsible for the losses suffered by 1MDB.
