Former Malaysian leader Najib Razak, who has been convicted over the mammoth 1MDB scandal, is in trouble with the law again — this time for breaking coronavirus rules in a restaurant.
He was fined 3,000 ringgit ($730) for failing to register at the eatery or have his temperature taken, police said.
It came after footage circulated on social media showing the ex-prime minister flouting the rules in March at a Kuala Lumpur restaurant that sells a traditional chicken and rice dish, according to AFP.
While Najib still denies any involvement in the 1MDB fraud, over which he has been sentenced to 12 years in jail, he was quick to admit his misdemeanour at the eatery.
