Former prime minister Najib Abdul Razak was today recharged with money laundering in relation to SRC International Sdn Bhd in the Sessions Court in Kuala Lumpur.
He claimed trial to the three charges before Sessions judge Azman Ahmad.
Najib is charged with receiving the illegal proceeds to the amount of RM47 million in his Ambank account.
The prosecution is led by the head of the prosecution at the Attorney-General’s Chambers, Manoj Kurup.
The prosecution had, in the High Court in Kuala Lumpur yesterday, withdrawn the three charges after Najib was charged before Justice Mohd Nazlan Mohd Ghazali on Jan 28.
Najib, who was wearing an all-blue blazer and slacks, claimed trial to all charges.
He is charged with receiving the money through his personal bank account on July 8, 2014.
No new bail
While Manoj was considering asking the court to impose bail, Najib's lead counsel Muhammad Shafee Abdullah reminded that when Najib was first slapped with the three additional charges on Jan 28, then solicitor-general III Mohd Hanafiah Zakaria gave an undertaking that no new bail would be necessary.
Shafee added that more than RM6 million bail had been forked out for all of Najib's 40-odd charges.
Eventually, Manoj agreed that a verbal guarantee was sufficient for these three charges.
He also informed the court that the prosecution intended to transfer this case to the High Court.
Following this, Sessions judge Azman fixed March 8 for the mention and allowed bail to be guaranteed orally (jaminan mulut).
What a blinking joke... who is ruining the court the criminal, the hot shot ‘nipple pinching’ lawyer or the fitting judge? Najib created kangaroo courts and PH going into the direction of making the judiciary into a circus!
I am getting fed up of TT and his associates.
malulah sikit banduanku.
