Najib trial- Speaker defends writing to court asking to end early

  • 4 years ago
Dewan Rakyat Speaker Azhar Azizan Harun has defended his decision to write to the High Court in Kuala Lumpur last week, asking the court to consider ending Najib Abdul Razak's 1MDB trial early so the Pekan MP can debate in Parliament.

He said he has discretion on the matter and that his letter was not an order, but a request for consideration.
