DOZENS of Najib Razak supporters gathered outside the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission headquarters in Putrajaya tonight, claiming he has been falsely arrested.

Umno Supreme Council member Lokman Nor Adam, who is a former aide to Najib, had earlier called on Malaysians to turn up in a show of solidarity with the former prime minister from 9pm to 11pm.

Speaking at the gathering, Lokman said Najib is a victim of propaganda, and that he has been falsely arrested for his alleged involvement in 1Malaysia Development Bhd.

“Najib has cooperated with MACC twice, and yet, they arrested him. Do they need to arrest him? No. They just want to break his spirit,” he told the small but energetic crowd.

Najib’s supporters chanted “Bebas Najib” (Free Najib) and “Fitnah Najib” (Najib falsely accused) in between short speeches by those present.

The former Umno president will be brought to the Kuala Lumpur High Court tomorrow to be charged, following his arrest about 3pm today, in relation to funds from SRC International Sdn Bhd, a former subsidiary of 1MDB, that were found in his personal bank accounts.

Former Barisan Nasional government propaganda unit chief Tun Faisal Ismail Aziz said Najib is being treated unfairly.

“The missing RM42 billion has yet to be proven, and so has the RM2.6 billion.

“Who empowered the 1MDB task force to issue the order to arrest Najib? Shouldn’t it be MACC?”

He added that he expects the crowd tonight to swell. – July 3, 2018.

  • Lets see how long these dazed dozens will last. With party's accounts frozen, they'll soon realise there's money in it.

  • A dozen fools. Youre smarter and much more knowledgeable on the in-depth matter compared to MACC. Police , PM etc? Wake up you fools. What have you got from all these years? Looking at the dozens, youre likely jobless or useless. So go find a job or something useful to do.
