Former Malaysian PM Najib Razak withdraws appeal to remove judge from 1MDB corruption trial.
Former Malaysian PM Najib Razak has withdrawn his appeal to remove Judge Collin Lawrence Sequerah from his 1MDB corruption trial. Najib faced a total of 25 charges, including four counts of bribery and 21 counts of money laundering. The withdrawal allows the case to proceed without interruption, but the issue of Judge Sequerah's recusal can still be raised in the main appeal if necessary.
