Najib and son allowed to defer payment
Former prime minister Najib Razak and his son Nazifuddin were today allowed to defer the payment of tax arrears amounting to RM1.69 billion and RM37.6 million respectively to the Inland Revenue Board (LHDN) after the Court of Appeal granted their applications for a stay of execution pending the hearing of their bid for leave to appeal.
A three-man bench led by Azizah Nawawi made a unanimous decision after ruling that special circumstances existed for the postponement.
