PETALING JAYA: Former prime minister Najib Razak has sued PKR information chief Shamsul Iskandar Mohd Akin for defamation following his failure to retract, correct, and apologise for claiming that Najib had stolen RM2.6 billion in 1MDB funds to support his lifestyle.

On Feb 23, Shamsul, who is the Hang Tuah MP, also accused former Goldman Sachs banker Tim Leissner and fugitive businessman Low Taek Jho, or Jho Low, of using the public’s money to support their lifestyles in a Facebook post.

“The Hang Tuah Jaya MP and PKR information chief has failed to respond to my lawyer’s letter of demand.

“With this, I have instructed my lawyer to file a defamation suit against Shamsul in court,” Najib wrote on Facebook today.
