Najib Razak received an additional 15-year prison sentence and a record 13.5 billion ringgit fine after a Malaysian High Court found him guilty of massive embezzlement from the 1MDB state fund.Judge Collin Lawrence Sequerah dismissed the defense claim that the nearly 700 million dollars in his personal accounts were Saudi donations, labeling the explanation a fabrication involving forged documents.This ruling follows a prior 12-year conviction for the former leader, whose involvement in the 4.5 billion dollar scandal previously triggered global investigations by the DOJ and authorities in multiple countries.
