A Queen’s Counsel (QC) from the United Kingdom would not be representing Najib Abdul Razak in the former premier’s upcoming RM42 million SRC International corruption case appeal.

The Kuala Lumpur High Court this afternoon dismissed an application to grant interim admission to the Bar for QC Jonathan Laidlaw.

Judge Ahmad Kamal Md Shahid ruled that Laidlaw has failed to show that he has special qualifications and experience to handle the SRC appeal.

The judge noted that the SRC case's issues are quite capable of being handled by Malaysian lawyers.
