SRC trial: Prosecution applies to impeach Najib
KUALA LUMPUR: The prosecution in Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak’s SRC trial today applied to impeach the credibility of the former prime minister following contradictions in his testimony in court and statement given to the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC).
Appointed prosecutor Datuk V Sithambaram made the application before Judge Mohd Nazlan Mohd Ghazali to begin impeachment proceedings against Najib under Section 145 and 155 of the Evidence Act.
At the outset of the hearing, Najib agreed with Sithambaram that there were serious contradictions in his testimony and what was recorded by the MACC.
