, who is facing charges for money laundering, to amend the date for the temporary release of his passport for his travel to Australia for a meeting with a King's Counsel from the United Kingdom.

Judge Datuk Muhammad Jamil Hussin allowed Muhammad Shafee's application after deputy public prosecutor Afzainizam Abdul Aziz did not object to it. This is because the King’s counsel, Geoffrey Robertson, needs time to study the documents first before he can give any advice or recommendation to Muhammad Shafee, he said, adding that his client would return the passport to the court on Sept 22.

The 70-year-old lawyer surrendered his passport to the court in September 2018 after he was charged with two counts of receiving money amounting to RM9.5 million, allegedly from illegal activities, through two cheques issued by Najib which were deposited into his CIMB Bank Berhad account.
