KUALA LUMPUR: Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak's review application to reverse his conviction and sentence for the misappropriation of RM42 million in SRC International Sdn Bhd (SRC) funds has been fixed for case management at the Federal Court on Oct 21.
The former prime minister's lawyer Tan Sri Muhammad Shafee Abdullah said this during Najib's another SRC case management relating to three money-laundering charges involving RM27 million of SRC funds before High Court Judge Mohamed Zaini Mazlan today.
"I am. I'm back on board after some hustle, but I'm back," he said.
"You should have never left," Judge Mohamed Zaini responded to the laughter of the courtroom.
On Aug 23, the Federal Court upheld the High Court's decision to convict Najib to 12 years' jail and fine of RM210 million in the RM42 million SRC case.
Najib, 69, is currently serving his sentence at the Kajang Prison.
