Despite the damning accusations by The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) and Australian media the past few days against Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak on the alleged 1MDB scandal, his lawyer Mohd Hafarizam Harun said he has not received any instructions to act or file suit against them.

For now, Hafarizam said, the instruction is to represent Najib on the RM2.6 billion suit filed last week by former prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad.
