Kuala Lumpur: The High Court today ordered Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak to enter his defence on seven charges of misappropriating RM42 million in SRC International Sdn Bhd funds.

Justice Mohd Nazlan Mohd Ghazali made the ruling at 11.34 am.

The judge arrived at the decision after finding that the prosecution had established a prima facie case against former prime minister Najib, 66, on three counts of criminal breach of trust (CBT), three counts of money laundering and one count of abuse of power in relation to the funds.

The Pekan MP is accused of committing the offences between Aug 17, 2011 and March 2, 2015.

Najib, who served as the sixth prime minister from 2009 to 2018, is the first head of government of Malaysia to find himself in the dock of a court.
