Former IGP: Mahathir, Muhyiddin and Daim did not interfere


KUALA LUMPUR: There was no interference from Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad, Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin or the late Tun Daim Zainuddin in the decision to charge Datuk Seri Najib Razak in connection with the 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) scandal, the High Court heard.

Former inspector-general of police Tan Sri Mohamad Fuzi Harun, 66, testified that although investigation briefings were provided to the three political figures in 2018, the decision to prosecute Najib was made solely by Tan Sri Tommy Thomas, who was the Attorney General at that time.
