00:08The Kuala Lumpur High Court was told on Monday that a Swiss court made no finding that fugitive

00:13businessman Joe Low represented himself on behalf of former Prime Minister Datuk Seri

00:17Najib Razak.

00:18Najib's lead counsel Tan Sri Muhammad Shafi Abdullah said this, relating to the Swiss

00:23court conviction of Petro-Saudi International Limited, or PSI executives Tarek Obaid and

00:29Patrick Mahoney last week.

00:31Obaid and Mahoney were jailed 7 and 6 years respectively after they were found guilty

00:36for their roles in embezzling more than 1.8 billion US dollars from 1MDB.

00:42They were both convicted of fraud, criminal mismanagement and money laundering by the

00:46court in the southern Swiss city of Bellinzona.

00:49According to Muhammad Shafi, there were testimonies and evidence that dismissed the notion that

00:54Najib gave clearance to Joe Low regarding the joint venture between 1MDB and PSI.

01:00Muhammad Shafi submitted at the end of the prosecution's case, in Najib's 2.28 billion

01:05ringgit 1MDB graft case.

01:08The hearing continues this afternoon.
