The Kuala Lumpur High Court has ordered former premier Najib Abdul Razak to repay SRC International Sdn Bhd US$1.18 billion (RM4.77 billion) for losses the government-linked company had suffered.

He was also directed to repay US$120 million of SRC funds that flowed into the former finance minister’s bank account.

Kuala Lumpur High Court judge Ahmad Fairuz Zainal Abidin delivered the ruling in SRC’s civil suit against Najib and the company’s former chief executive officer, Nik Faisal Ariff Kamil, who is still at large.
