Ad-hoc prosecutor Datuk Seri Gopal Sri Ram, who is leading the prosecution, today raised the news report dated March 4 containing Najib’s comments on the 1MDB trial, which he is currently facing. “On 4 March 2020, there’s a report which reports the accused as having said that with the fall of the government that ousted him, he now expects an atmosphere more conducive to a fair hearing and he added that I would expect more conducive towards a fair trial.

Sri Ram said the prosecution would be making a formal application before High Court judge Collin Lawrence Sequerah as the remarks appear to involve the latter’s court.
