PUTRAJAYA: The Court of Appeal was told that a judge who lacked experience in criminal cases had presided over the"case of the century" involving former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak, who was convicted of the misappropriation of RM42mil from SRC International Sdn Bhd.

The lawyer, who has more than 40 years' experience as a former deputy public prosecutor and lawyer, said in his experience, complex criminal cases would be heard before experienced judges. Muhammad Shafee said those cases had experienced judges presiding over them and Justice Mohd Nazlan had made"errors" in the SRC International case.

Earlier, at the start of the proceedings, the Court of Appeal dismissed Najib's application to adjourn the hearing. The defence wanted to obtain relevant documents - said to be linked to 1Malaysia Development Bhd and involving allegations against former Bank Negara governor Tan Sri Dr Zeti Akhtar Aziz - from New York and Singapore.

Najib's defence team has submitted 307 grounds in his petition of appeal on why he should be cleared of the charges.
