Najib takes Islamic oath to swear innocence in SRC case
KUALA LUMPUR: Surrounded by supporters before the final week of his SRC International final appeal, Najib Razak has taken another Islamic oath swearing his innocence.
The former prime minister denied any involvement in the transfer of SRC International funds and added that he had no clue that RM42 million that entered into his bank accounts was from the company.
“Secondly, I never intended to start the company to collect any personal funds for myself or my family,” he said in a speech at Masjid Jamek Kampung Baru.

Najib also said he had never instructed any director or officer from SRC international to transfer any funds to him.
He added that he was not involved in a Cabinet meeting, instructing a senior official from Retirement Fund Incorporated (KWAP) to “expedite” a RM2 billion loan from the company.
“I am standing here to clear my name and my family’s name. If I lie on this oath, Allah, may you punish me. If I am found innocent, if all of this is slander planned by my political enemies, I ask you to punish them,” he added.
