Lawyer for Malaysia's Najib says he does not intend to seek stay of sentencing in 1MDB trial
The defence lawyer for jailed former Malaysian premier Najib Razak said he did not intend to request a stay of sentencing, after the former leader was convicted on Friday of multiple charges in relation to the multibillion-dollar 1MDB scandal.
Najib, 72, has been in prison since August 2022 after a conviction in an earlier case involving 1Malaysia Development Berhad, which he co-founded in 2009 while premier.
