Former 1MDB CEO Arul Kanda Kandasamy has been given the court’s green light to take the witness stand against former prime minister Najib Abdul Razak.

The Kuala Lumpur High Court this morning allowed the prosecution’s bid to call the co-accused to testify against the former finance minister in the 1MDB audit report trial.

Arul Kanda is seen exiting the dock and walking toward the witness stand as Najib looked on from the dock.
