The criminal trial of former prime minister Najib Abdul Razak involving the alleged misappropriation of funds from SRC International Sdn Bhd enters its 37th day today at the High Court in Kuala Lumpur.
Malaysiakini brings you live reports of the proceedings.
'This is a fishing expedition' - Prosecution.
9.40am - DPP V Sithambaram objects to the defence's alleged line of cross-examination over the past half hour, calling it "fishing expedition".
"They (defence) must specify what they want (in cross-examination). This is a fishing expedition," Sithambaram tells judge Mohd Nazlan Mohd Ghazali.
The DPP is referring to lawyer Harvijnderjit Singh's grilling of 46th witness Shuzairizman, the digital forensics analyst with Bank Negara's Financial Intelligence and Enforcement Department.
The lawyer spent the past half an hour questioning the witness over the alleged non-compliance of SOP by Shuzairizman in recording his extraction of digital data from the phone.
Nazlan orders Harvinderjit to limit this line of questioning to 10 minutes.
Najib enters the dock, proceedings begin

While awaiting proceedings to begin, also seen are his lead counsel Muhammad Shafee Abdullah and other members of the defence team, as well as AG Tommy Thomas and other DPPs.
Najib Abdul Razak's RM42 million SRC International trial enters its 37th day today with the cross-examination of 46th witness Shuzairizman Shuib.
The defence is expected to focus on reports prepared by Shuzairizman, a digital forensics analyst with Bank Negara's Financial Intelligence and Enforcement Department, on data extracted from devices confiscated from the Jalan Raja Chulan branch of AmBank on July 6, 2015.
These reports concern a Blackberry phone seized from AmBank's then-relationship manager Joanna Yu, among others.
As proceedings resume before Kuala Lumpur High Court judge Mohd Nazlan Mohd Ghazali, the prosecution may also update the court over lead defence counsel Muhammad Shafee Abdullah's allegation that Najib was denied access to information on his own AmBank accounts. - Mkini
