KUALA LUMPUR: The High Court heard that an inflow of money into the private account of Datuk Seri Najib Razak was not necessarily an offence unless the transaction was done with bad intent and knowledge.

Former Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission chief commissioner Tan Sri Dzulkifli Ahmad, 52, however, said it would be an offence if the money was spent regardless of intent or knowledge.

The witness, who was under re-examination by Najib's lead counsel Tan Sri Muhammad Shafee Abdullah, also said the MACC suggested for SRC International CEO Nik Faisal Ariff Kamil, SRC International director Datuk Suboh Md Yassin and two other directors to be charged for criminal breach of trust under Section 409 of the Penal Code.

The court had previously heard that Najib did not know money that was banked into his account between 2014 and 2015 came from SRC International, which was a subsidiary of 1Malaysia Development Bhd , and that he had spent the funds for corporate social responsibility programs.
