KUALA LUMPUR: Tit for tat.

Perhaps, that was the essence of jailed former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak's terse posting on Facebook today - believed to have been authored by an administrator - to Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin in relation to the latter's graft charges.

"Kita tengok pula jika dia dikerumun lepas ini (Let us see if people will gather around after this)," the posting read.

A posting included a screenshot of a news item titled "Orang kerumun Najib sebab nak tengok 'perompak lebih dekat, kata Muhyiddin" (People are gathering around Najib to take closer look at a 'robber', Muhyiddin said).

Yesterday, Muhyiddin was charged with six counts of corruption and abuse of power involving RM427.5 million.

He, however, pleaded not guilty to the six counts of corruption and power abuse before Sessions Court judge Azura Alwi.
