1MDB trial: Meeting between Najib, late Saudi King not mentioned in royal donation letter, court hears


PUTRAJAYA: A royal letter that supposedly backed up Datuk Seri Najib Razak's claims of a royal donation made no mention of a key meeting between him and the late Saudi monarch King Abdullah, the High Court heard.

The former prime minister, who was cross-examined by the prosecution over the contents of the letter, also conceded with the prosecution's suggestion that the letter - dated Feb 1, 2011 - made no mention of the King's name.
