The matter was disclosed by one of Najib’s lawyers, Harvinderjit Singh, when the former premier’s corruption case involving 1Malaysia Development Berhad funds of RM2.28 billion, was mentioned before High Court Judge Collin Lawrence Sequerah here today. On March 27, Federal Court seven-man panel, led by Chief Justice Tan Sri Richard Malanjum, lifted the stay of proceedings order granted by the Court of Appeal to Najib, which he filed on February 8, to temporarily stall the trial pending disposal of his appeals over his interlocutory matters.
“We received her reply today, in which she stated that the decision to put the case on hold is at the discretion of the court,” he said.
