FORMER prime minister Najib Razak was picked up this morning by the police for questioning after spending the night in the Malaysian Anti Corruption Commission (MACC) lock-up.

He left MACC headquarters in Putrajaya in an unmarked vehicle about 8.55am.

He is believed to be headed for the Commercial Crime Investigation Department office to have his statement recorded before he is escorted to the Kuala Lumpur Sessions Court in Jalan Duta, at 3pm. 

It was reported that Najib would today be charged under Section 23(1) of the MACC Act 2009, for the offence of using his position for gratification.

MACC arrested Najib yesterday evening in relation to the case of RM2.6 billion discovered in his personal bank account that was allegedly from 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB).

He is already facing charges of money-laundering, corruption and power abuse over the transfer of RM42 million from SRC International into his account. SRC is a former !MDB subsidiary .

MACC in a statement yesterday said the Pekan MP would be brought to court to facilitate investigations under the Anti-Money Laundering, Anti-Terrorism Financing and Proceeds of Unlawful Activities Act 2001. –  September 20, 2018.
