The Kuala Lumpur High Court has directed Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak and his wife Rosmah Mansor to file their defence within 14 days from today over a suit filed by A Santamil Selvi, the widow of private investigator P Balasubramaniam.
Justice Hue Siew Kheng made similar orders for the other defendants in the suit, which included two of Najib's siblings as well as senior lawyer Cecil Abraham and businessperson Deepak Jaikishian.
This follows Justice Hue dismissing their applications for a stay in filing their defence pending the hearing of their striking out applications.
This is the first time Najib has been required to file his defence in relation to a suit filed against him.
