Najib Abdul Razak testified at the High Court in Kuala Lumpur today that he spent RM466,330 on a luxury watch for his wife Rosmah Mansor, to placate his family for cutting short the trip in Hawaii in 2014.

The former prime minister said his family was disappointed when he was forced to end the holiday with them, due to the floods in the East Coast in Dec 2014.

He added that it was near his wife's birthday, hence why they were very disappointed with his decision.

He said therefore, he made the decision to placate his family and to buy something chosen by his wife.
