Convicted former prime minister Najib Abdul Razak will make a statement to the court during the mitigation hearing. Follow the live report here:

- Mohd Nazlan rules that Najib failed to raise a reasonable doubt in the prosecution's case over three criminal breach of trust charges in relation to RM42 million transfer into his accounts.- Mohd Nazlan notes that the accused did not send King Abdullah a "thank you" note despite having received monies amounting to RM2.6 billion ostensibly from the monarch.

"The letters took great pain to say the donation is not corruption. Yet the accused, as the prime minister of a country, did not see prudent to check and verify the letters," rules the judge.- Mohd Nazlan now rules on the defence's claim that the accused thought the money in his AmBank Islamic accounts were a "donation" from the Saudi royal family.

This follows several warnings by the police earlier over the adherence of Covid-19 prevention guidelines.Far-fetched to claim Najib conned by Jho Low, says judge- Mohd Nazlan rules that Jho Low fully understood his role and that there was no doubt that he was dealing with the former prime minister's bank accounts.

The accused's conduct "at all times" was undertaken to ensure sufficient funds were in the accounts before spending it. "The accused said the matter has to be dealt with 'government-to-government' manner. But evidence shows, as prime minister, never initiated ," he says.- Mohd Nazlan rules that there was no dispute that cabinet's approval for the Retirement Fund Incorporated first RM2 billion loan to SRC International was "rushed".

There is limited seating for the press, who had to draw straws a few days prior. Most will have to contend with a video-link facility. Clad either in red or blue, many bearing the familiar "bossku" phrase on their T-shirts as a sign of reverence for their leader, these supporters came from all over the country.

The other criminal cases against Najib that are still either being heard or pending before the Kuala Lumpur High Court are the RM2.28 billion 1MDB abuse of power and money laundering case, the 1MDB audit report tampering case, the RM6.6 billion IPIC CBT case, and the RM27 million SRC International money laundering case.Today’s verdict is in relation to one count of abuse of power, three counts of CBT, and three counts of money laundering involving RM42 million of monies from SRC International.
