DAP lawmaker Tony Pua has filed a misfeasance in public office suit against Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak and the government in relation to 1MDB.

The application was filed with the High Court in Kuala Lumpur yesterday by the firm Messrs Thomas Philip, and a copy was sighted by Malaysiakini today.

Pua, who is also DAP national publicity secretary, is seeking a declaration that Najib had committed misfeasance in public office and another declaration that the defendant abused his public office to personally benefit from 1MDB funds.
