Najib's lawyer will appeal the 15-year jail, RM11.387 billion fine
Local and international media reported Datuk Seri Mohd Najib Tun Abdul Razak will appeal the 15-year jail sentence and RM11.387 billion fine handed down to him by the High Court following his conviction on all 25 charges of abuse of power and money laundering in his 1MDB case.
The former Prime Minister’s lawyer, Tan Sri Muhammad Shafee Abdullah, said he will appeal the “blunders” in Justice Datuk Collin Lawrence Sequerah’s judgment on Monday, 29 December 2025, adding that there were “50 to 100” points that the defence would challenge.
Shafee said he was left disappointed with every “point” that was handed down by the learned judge.
“We think, with the greatest of respect to the judge, he has made so many blunders in this judgment,” he said at a press conference held at the lobby of the High Court in Putrajaya today.
“I call it blunders because I think that is what it is – because you cannot have that many mistakes in a judgment of this importance,” FMT quoted Muhammad Shafee as saying.
