A Queen’s Counsel (QC) from the United Kingdom did not act for Najib Abdul Razak when the former prime minister’s RM42 million SRC International corruption case was brought to court in 2018, the Kuala Lumpur High Court heard.

Deputy public prosecutor V Sithambaram submitted this during today’s hearing of an application to allow Jonathan Laidlaw to be temporarily admitted to the Malaysian Bar so the QC could represent Najib in the upcoming SRC appeal before the Federal Court.

The DPP submitted that the QC’s assistance is not needed when compared to Najib’s legal team led by defence counsel Muhammad Shafee Abdullah (above, left), who argued for the former premier when the trial was at the High Court and all the way through the initial appeal before the Court of Appeal.
