KUALA LUMPUR, June 24 – The High Court here today allowed the prosecution to amend the charges against former Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak and former 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) chief executive officer Arul Kanda Kandasamy in their 1MDB audit report tampering case.
Judge Mohamed Zaini Mazlan made the decision after finding that the amendment to the charges will not cause any prejudice or cause injustice to both the accused.
Najib, 67, and Arul Kanda, 43, however, pleaded not guilty to the amended charges.
