KUALA LUMPUR: A former Treasury secretary-general told the court in Najib Razak’s corruption and abuse of power trial today that the former prime minister had called him to request that the pensioners’ fund release a RM2 billion loan to SRC International Sdn Bhd before a government guarantee was formalised.
