Former Malaysian PM ordered to pay 400 mln USD in unpaid taxes
VTV.vn - The Kuala Lumpur High Court on Wednesday (July 22) ordered former Malaysian prime minister Najib Razak to pay additional income tax totalling nearly 400 million USD to the government.

Previously in June 2019, Malaysian tax authorities filed the suit to recover unpaid taxes accumulated by Najib between 2011 and 2017, plus penalties and interest.

Najib had served as Malaysian prime minister from 2009 to 2018 and is now facing multiple charges of corruption and abuse of power linked to 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB).
