“King Abdullah was also worried that the Arab spring could reach Asia,” he said during the examination-in-chief by Najib’s lead counsel Tan Sri Muhammad Shafee Abdullah today. Syed Omar said King Abdullah, Najib, and Jamil Khir had isolated themselves and went to middle of the room after the meeting ended. “After the meeting, I was told that King Abdullah decided to give a donation to Najib for his disposal in the 2013 general election,” he said. “Najib told me about it after the meeting… I did not hear it from King Abdullah himself,” he said, adding that he also had no information on the £50 million donation from King Abdullah to Najib six years ago.
