Former Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak charged with corruption - CNN
<excerpts>
Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia (CNN)Former Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak has been charged with four counts of corruption for embezzling public money from Malaysia's 1MDB fund.
In court Wednesday in the Malaysian capital, Najib was charged with three counts of criminal breach of trust and one charge of abuse of power, just weeks after voters ousted him from power in large part due to long-standing corruption allegations.
Last week police said they had seized $225 million in luxury handbags, jewelry, cash and goods from six properties linked to the former leader.
The goods were seized as part of the investigation into the sprawling scandal related to 1MDB, a state investment vehicle from which Najib and others are accused of siphoning off billions of dollars.
