PUTRAJAYA: Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak has been summoned again to meet graft investigators, this time over what is believed to be the project to provide electricity to rural schools in Sarawak that has already entangled his wife.
He was seen entering the Malaysian Anti Corruption Commission headquarters at 9.22am on Monday (Nov 19).
Najib is already facing close to 40 court chargers of corruption, money laundering and power abuse.
Najib's wife Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor has already been charged with two counts of corruption over the project, said to be worth RM1. 25bil.
Rosmah is said to have committed the offence between March and April 2016.
She has been accused of soliciting for herself a RM187.5mil bribe from Jepak Holdings Sdn Bhd managing director Saidi Abang Samsudin, through her former aide Datuk Rizal Mansor.
The money was to be the reward for helping Jepak Holdings obtain a project, through direct negotiations with the Education Ministry, for installing solar hybrid systems and for maintenance and operation of diesel generators for 369 rural schools in Sarawak.
