The Court of Appeal has rejected an application by prosecutors and defence lawyers to postpone the trial against Najib Abdul Razak for corruption and laundering of RM2.28 billion in funds from 1MDB.
Unless further appeals are successful, Najib's 1MDB trial will begin on Aug 19, and will likely clash with his ongoing trial on matters concerning SRC International Sdn Bhd.
The three-member Court of Appeal bench led by Abdul Rahman Sebli said both the prosecution and defence should apply for a postponement only when the clash actually occurs.
