PETALING JAYA: Was Najib Razak deprived of “effective representation” by a counsel of his choice?
That is one of several key questions posed by Najib’s defence team, led by Shafee Abdullah, which the Federal Court will have to address when deciding whether to review its own decision in the former prime minister’s SRC International corruption appeal.
KUALA LUMPUR: The High Court here has dismissed the police and the government’s application to strike out a lawsuit filed by the mother of Dutch model Ivana Esther Robert Smit (pic), whose body was found on a balcony on the sixth floor of a condominium here five years ago.
The Court of Appeal has dismissed Najib Razak’s appeal to obtain discovery of documents concerning companies controlled by former Bank Negara Malaysia governor Zeti Akhtar Aziz’s family and fugitive businessman Low Taek Jho, or Jho Low.
