KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 18 — Former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak today failed in his application to remove judge Datuk Collin Lawrence Sequerah from continuing to hear his 1Malaysia Development Berhad trial, which means he has also failed in achieving his ultimate goal of being acquitted.
Recently, 1MDB's former in-house lawyer Jasmine Loo resurfaced and was arrested in Malaysia after being abroad throughout the years of the trial, with Najib's lawyers then asking on July 26 if she would be a witness in the 1MDB trial. Loo also worked in Zain & Co as a lawyer in the corporate department , before eventually joining 1MDB and becoming a fugitive over the 1MDB scandal.
Najib's lead defence lawyer Tan Sri Muhammad Shafee Abdullah then said his client will be appealing today's decision.
