Malaysian court denies Najib Razak's request to permanently stay his corruption trial.

The Kuala Lumpur High Court has denied a request by former Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak for a permanent stay in his criminal breach of trust trial, which involves RM6.6 billion. The court rejected the application after the prosecution failed to provide crucial documents to Najib's legal team despite a previous court order. Proceedings have been postponed to allow for an application for discharge not amounting to acquittal.
