00:00Former Prime Minister Najib Razak and ex-Treasury Secretary-General Irwan Serigar Abdullah have

00:07been granted a discharge not amounting to acquittal in their International Petroleum

00:11Investment Company case.

00:13Justice Jamil Hussein said he was using his inherent powers in allowing their DNAA application.

00:20Najib and Irwan were charged in 2018 with six counts of misappropriating public funds

00:25intended for payment to IPIC, an Abu Dhabi-owned corporation.

00:29They applied for a DNAA as the prosecution had yet to supply key documents to the defence.

00:35Jamil said the prosecution had not followed procedure in delivering the documents as required

00:40under Section 51A of the Criminal Procedure Code.

00:43He said although the two were charged in 2018 and trial dates were fixed, the documents

00:48were not delivered, which was an inordinate delay.

00:51Debsi Public Prosecutor Saifuddin Hashim Musaymi said some declassified documents had

00:55been handed over, but others were withheld as they are governed by the Official Secrets

00:59Act.
