00:00Former Prime Minister Najib Razak said he was disheartened by former cabinet colleague
00:07Ahmad Hosni Hanazala's testimony against him at his 1MDB trial.
00:12Najib said Hosni's claim of being sidelined in 1MDB matters was untrue.
00:19He said he was also disappointed when Hosni, who served as the second finance minister
00:24from 2009 to 2016, tendered his resignation from cabinet.
00:29Najib's lawyer Shafi Abdullah also asked him why Hosni had appeared angry in court,
00:36to which Najib replied that he wanted to transfer Hosni to another ministry, but Hosni insisted
00:42on remaining as second finance minister.
00:45Najib said Hosni might also have been unhappy because a highway project in which his son
00:51Khalid was involved did not go through.
00:54Najib is standing trial on 25 counts of money laundering and abuse of power over alleged
01:001MDB funds amounting to 2.28 billion ringgit deposited into his AmBank accounts between
01:07February 2011 and December 2014.
