Najib’s forged signature claim an ‘afterthought’, prosecution tells court

Najib Razak has applied to the court to have a handwriting expert examine 35 SRC International documents, on 13 of which the accused’s signature is disputed. The defence also wants the findings to be admitted as evidence. – The Malaysian Insight pic by Afif Abd Halim, January 21, 2020.

NAJIB Razak’s application to call a handwriting expert to testify at his corruption trial over SRC International funds should be dismissed, the prosecution argued in court today, as the former prime minister had only recently thought up the claim that his signature was forged on the company’s documents.

During most of the trial, which began in April last year and is now in the defence stage, Najib had remained silent on the matter of his signing off on those documents, ad hoc deputy public prosecutor V. Sithambaram told the Kuala Lumpur High Court. Effective July 2018, access to full reports will only be available with a subscription. Sign-up now and enjoy one week free access!
