KUALA LUMPUR (April 23): Former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib’s lawyer Tania Scivetti said today the prosecution’s asset forfeiture action against Najib must be dismissed because there is no evidence that the seized properties from his residence along Jalan Langgak Duta were linked to alleged 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB)-related money in his AmBank accounts.
Scivetti told High Court Judge Mohamed Zaini Mazlan today that the prosecution failed to prove how the funds that were sent to Najib’s AmBank accounts are linked to the properties seized from Najib’s residence in 2018 during a raid by the police then.
News reports indicated that the seized items included handbags, watches and foreign currencies.
