KUALA LUMPUR: Tan Sri Muhammad Shafee Abdullah, who is the lead counsel for former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak has arrived at the Kuala Lumpur court complex here on Thursday (Aug 25).
Shafee arrived at 9.38am in a white SUV for Najib's 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) embezzlement case.
He walked straight into the courtroom without saying a word to the media personnel present.
Najib arrived earlier at 8.26am for his RM2.28bil 1MDB embezzlement trial.
This is his first appearance in court after being sent to prison on Tuesday (Aug 23) following the Federal Court's dismissal of his final appeal in the SRC International Sdn Bhd case.
On Tuesday, Najib became the first former prime minister in the country's history to be sent to prison after the Federal Court upheld the High Court's conviction and sentence.
On July 28, 2020, the Kuala Lumpur High Court sentenced Najib to 12 years in jail and a total fine of RM210mil after being found guilty of seven charges of criminal breach of trust, money laundering and abuse of position in the RM42mil SRC International case. - Star
