Issues raised by Najib's counsel have been adjudicated, says AGC


KUALA LUMPUR: The Attorney General's Chambers (AGC) has issued a statement asserting that all matters raised by Datuk Seri Najib Razak's defence team in a recent press conference concerning the 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) case had been fully presented and adjudicated during the trial.

In a statement on Friday (Dec 19), the AGC clarified that these issues were raised throughout the trial proceedings, which spanned from Aug 28, 2019, to Nov 4, 2025.

It reiterated the department's commitment to conducting prosecutions with independence, fairness, and integrity, adding that all its decisions are based solely on the law and available evidence to ensure justice and uphold the public interest.

The statement served as a direct response to a press conference held on Thursday (Dec 18) by Najib's lead counsel, Tan Sri Muhammad Shafee Abdullah, at the Kuala Lumpur Court Complex, during which he raised several issues pertaining to the case.

The verdict on the 1MDB case will be delivered by Judge Datuk Collin Lawrence Sequerah on Dec 26, 2025. – Bernama
