PUTRAJAYA: The Federal Court will hear former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak's appeal against his conviction and sentence for misappropriation of RM42 million of SRC International Sdn Bhd funds today.
At 9.10am, the former prime minister arrived at the Palace of Justice, here, in a Mercedes Benz.
Earlier, a small group of supporters started gathering outside the building to show support for the embattled Pekan Member of Parliament.
