Tens of thousands of people logged onto Facebook watched as journalists live-streamed the 3 am raid on Friday at an apartment in a fancy condominium, just one of several locations linked to the Najib family that were searched. During his near ten years in power, Najib stamped out political dissent, and stifled criticism in the media.
