Malaysiakni - Kadir foresees Najib's arrest on Tuesday (extracts):
A Kadir Jasin, the spokesperson for the Council of Eminent Persons, believes former prime minister Najib Abdul Razak may be arrested when he gives his statement to the MACC on Tuesday.
Kadir said this was based on precedence, citing the arrest of Felda chairperson Mohd Isa Abdul Samad when giving his statement to the commission over alleged graft in Felda Investment Corporation.
"I think this Tuesday, Najib will have to go to MACC to give his statement in relation to an earlier case.
"The chances are that he will give his statement and then be arrested. He will be taken to court for remand and he will be clothed in the famous MACC orange t-shirt.
"That was what happened to his good friend Isa. Remember he was asked to go to MACC and he was arrested, taken to court, remanded and wore the orange MACC t-shirt," he told Malaysiakini.
Kadir said anyone could make the conclusion that the 1MDB matter is about to be taken to the Malaysian courts.

Kadir Jasin is the mouthpiece of Mahathir, and Mahathir is the new ruler of Malaysia.
If the mouthpiece says Najib will be imprisoned on Tuesday, the Najib will be.
The mouthpiece's words are virtually the Emperor's imprimatur.
I believe Anwar will also be very very pleased, as of late I have begun to notice Anwar's growing schadenfreude at Najib's misfortune, wakakaka.
