1MDB audit tampering trial: Court to decide if Najib, Arul Kanda need to enter defence on March 3

The prosecution in the 1MDB audit report tampering trial closed its case on Sept 7, last year, after calling 16 witnesses.

Justice Mohamed Zaini Mazlan, who is now a Court of Appeal judge, will return to the High Court to deliver his decision at the end of the prosecution's case against the two men at 9am on Friday.

His first conviction and sentence came from the RM42mil SRC International Sdn Bhd case, which is currently at the leave application stage for a review at the Federal Court while the RM2.28bil 1MDB case is being heard at another High Court. Najib, 70, is accused of abusing his position to order amendments to the 1MDB final audit report to avoid any action being taken against him while Arul Kanda, 46, is accused of abetting him in making the amendments to the report.
