KUALA LUMPUR: The High Court here has set 30 days in June and July next year to hear the criminal breach of trust (CBT) case involving Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak and former Treasury secretary-general Tan Sri Mohd Irwan Serigar Abdullah involving RM6.6 billion in government funds.

Judge Datuk Muhammad Jamil Hussin fixed the dates following a request by deputy public prosecutor Muhammad Saifuddin Hashim Musaimi.

The court set June 4 to 27 and July 2 to 31 next year to hear the case.

“The whole month of June and July is fixed for trial except Fridays,” said the judge.

Today’s proceeding was fixed for the prosecution to inform the court of the status of the representation submitted by Najib dan Mohd Irwan for the six charges against them to be dropped.

However, the court was not informed of the matter during the proceeding.
