This article is a year old
The five-member Federal Court bench rejected former premier Najib Abdul Razak's review application in the RM42 million SRC International corruption case last week.

The majority decision was by four of the members - Federal Court judges Vernon Ong Lam Kiat, Rhodzariah Bujang and Nordin Hassan as well as Court of Appeal judge Abu Bakar Jais.

The panel's chairperson Chief Judge of Sabah and Sarawak Abdul Rahman Sebli made the sole dissenting judgment. He was inclined to allow the review bid against Najib's guilty verdict as well as the 12-year jail sentence and RM210 million fine in lieu of an additional five years in jail.
