Malaysia's chief justice on Najib's judgment: 'If you don't understand, you ask'

KUALA LUMPUR - The Chief Justice of Malaysia said on Saturday that people should not be making statements about a court judgment without having full understanding of the court's decision.

She was responding to a question on politicians attacking the judiciary after the apex Federal Court on Aug 23 affirmed the 12-year jail sentence of former prime minister Najib Razak for graft. Tengku Maimun advised people against jumping to conclusions without first understanding the judgment or consulting those who were more knowledgeable about the application of the law.
