PUTRAJAYA: The filing of an appeal by Datuk Seri Najib Razak and his son Datuk Mohd Nazifuddin in relation to a RM1.7bil tax arrears is meant to avoid paying off what they owe the government, the Federal Court heard.

"The rationale is for all taxpayers to be treated equally and and most importantly, to take care of the government's coffers," she said here on Wednesday . Meanwhile, lawyer Tan Sri Muhammad Shafee Abdullah who is representing Najib and Nazifuddin said the government was trying to"bankrupt" the father and son by asking them to"pay first, talk later".

Together on the panel with him were Chief Judge of Malaya Justice Mohamad Zabidin Mohd Diah and Federal Court judges Justices P. Nallini, Mary Lim Thiam Suan and Abu Bakar Jais.The former prime minister and his son were appealing against two High Courts’ decisions in allowing LHDN’s application to enter summary judgments over the income tax arrears.
