Najib was convicted in the High Court, Court of Appeal, and Federal Court for RM42 million criminal breach of trust and money laundering in the SRC International case. After failed appeals, he started his jail sentence in 2022. His wife, Rosmah Mansor, also faces money laundering and tax evasion charges and has pleaded not guilty.
