The judge listed several key findings against former Prime Minister Najib Razak in the 1MDB case, supporting the decision that he must defend himself. Key points included: Najib’s personal AmIslamic accounts were operated under code names. He opened three new accounts at the same bank after closing the one that received US$681 million. Najib actively managed these accounts and was aware of the transactions and their purposes. Former Bank Negara Governor Tan Sri Zeti Akhtar Aziz testified that Najib requested a declaration of innocence, which was denied. Ex-AmBank banker Joanna Yu revealed that Jho Low coordinated fund transfers into Najib’s “9694” account with Najib’s knowledge. Given these details, the judge concluded that Najib was “willfully blind” in failing to investigate the origins of these funds when he should have done so. Najib lawyer says all is hearsay.
