Najib claims termination of Abdul Gani Patails service nothing to do with 1MDB


PUTRAJAYA: Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak told the High Court here on Tuesday (Jan 21) that the termination of Tan Sri Abdul Gani Patail's service as Attorney-General in 2015 had nothing to do with the investigation into 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB).

Instead, the former Prime Minister, who is testifying as the first defence witness over allegations of misappropriation of RM2.3bil of 1MDB funds, said the termination of Abdul Gani’s service was due to several problems including his health condition.
