PUTRAJAYA: Former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak will apply for Queen’s Counsel from the United Kingdom to argue his appeal to quash his conviction and 12-year jail sentence and RM210mil fine for the SRC International Sdn Bhd case in the Federal Court.

Deputy public prosecutor Mohd Ashrof Andrin Kamarul said Najib’s lead counsel Tan Sri Muhammad Shafee Abdullah informed the matter to Federal Court Registrar Siti Hajar Mustaffa during online proceedings on Monday .

"The defence will write a letter to the Federal Court by Tuesday on their intention to apply for a Queen’s Counsel from the UK to attend and argue on Najib’s appeal. The court has fixed Jan 28 for next case management to determine the next step for the appeal,” he told reporters here. Queen’s Counsel appointment will be on an ad-hoc basis after obtaining admission from the Malaysian court.On Dec 7 last year, the Court of Appeal dismissed Najib’s application to adduce new evidence in his appeal by ruling that Najib had failed to cumulatively satisfy Section 61 of the Courts of Judicature Act that fresh evidence was required for justice in the case.

On the next day, the same court upheld the conviction and 12-year jail term and RM210mil fine on Najib for misappropriating RM42mil in SRC funds. Justice Datuk Abdul Karim Abdul Jalil, who led a three-member bench comprising Justices Datuk Has Zanah Mehat and Datuk Vazeer Alam Mydin Meera, dismissed Najib’s appeal against the KL High Court decision on July 28, 2020.Article type: metered
