Linked to 1MDB

This case is the first in a series of cases involving the 1MDB scandal.

Making on oral statement from the dock, Najib spoke about his past acheivements and contributions.

He later added "As a Muslim, I say this once again. Wallahi wabillahi watallahi. I did not demand for the RM42mil and I did not plan for it. It was offered to me. I have no knowledge of the RM42mil. That's all I have to say." as reported by The Star.

Najib's lawyers are expected to file for an appeal.
