Najib adds that this is particularly so as the practice of taking political donation is the norm as practised by his predecessor, whom he does not say who it is.- Former prime minister Najib Abdul Razak testifies he knew that the RM2.6 billion donation was specifically coming to his account due to letters from the Arab royal family.
