PUTRAJAYA, Jan 24 — The Court of Appeal will decide on January 27 on whether or not to allow Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak’s appeal to reinstate his lawsuit against AMMB Holdings Berhad and two others over alleged mismanagement of his bank accounts.
The hearing of Najib’s appeal resumed today with submissions by lawyers Yoong Sin Min and Benjamin John Dawson who acted for AMMB Holdings and AmBank Islamic Bhd and a reply from Najib’s lawyers Tan Sri Muhammad Shafee Abdullah and Harvinderjit Singh. The suit was struck out in September 2020 by the Kuala Lumpur High Court judge Datuk Khadijah Idris who ruled that the suit was an abuse of the court process as it amounted to a collateral attack on Najib’s SRC International criminal case as in the suit, the court is required to adjudicate on Najib’s knowledge of monies paid into his account which was the same issues before the criminal court in the SRC International case.
Najib’s defence to the SRC International charges was that the transactions in relation to his accounts were carried out without his knowledge and by unauthorised persons. “The case before this court is one in negligence. It is not a case for us to determine whether Najib is innocent or not,” he said adding that the issue to be determined in the trial is whether or not there is a breach of duty of care by the bank.
