KUALA LUMPUR - An audit officer secretly tape recorded a meeting in 2016 where then-premier Najib Razak allegedly discussed removing several key sections from the 1Malaysia Development Berhad's audit report that was to be presented to a parliamentary committee.
Despite not being allowed inside, Ms Nor Salwani, 52, told the court she had hidden a voice recorder in the stationary case of another officer who attended the meeting. Ms Nor Salwani told the court that she also secretly kept one of 60 copies of the original report, which the department had prepared in 2016, before it was allegedly tampered with.
The evidence saved by Ms Nor Salwani could become a crucial platform for the prosecution in the case.
