Police leave after raiding Najib’s alleged ‘safe house’ in Putrajaya

PUTRAJAYA: Plainclothes police officers have left after a raid on a house in Precinct 10, believed to be in connection with the investigation on 1MDB.

The raiding team left at 3.10pm, with about five police officers left behind to guard the house.

The bungalow is located on Jalan P10C, which is just a road away from Seri Perdana.

It belongs to the Property Management Division of the Prime Minister’s Department.

Several boxes were removed from the house and put into a white van that bore no police credentials.

However, the contents of the boxes could not be ascertained.

An online portal has alleged that it is Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak’s “safe house”.

Cops raid Najib’s ‘safe house’

POLICE this afternoon raided a ‘safe house’ in Putrajaya believed to be linked to former prime minister Najib Razak.

A team from federal police headquarters in Bukit Aman arrived at the double-storey bungalow around noon and shortly afterwards, officers were seen carting away boxes that were loaded into a van. Some of the boxes bore the stamp of the Prime Minister’s Office.

 

The Malaysian Insight learnt the bungalow serves as senior government officers’ quarters. Located in Precinct 10, where the residents are chiefly senior government and ministers, the bungalow is near Seri Perdana, the prime minister’s official residence.

According to neighbours, the last occupant was Najib’s former private secretary Shukry Mohd Salleh who was appointed Bank Rakyat chairman in January last year.

The bungalow has not been occupied since.

Stacks of boxes could be seen in living room today as police sifted through the contents.

The team conducting the operation is from the federal police commercial crime investigation department (CCID), which had previously raided several premises linked to the former prime minister.

In a raid at the unit in Pavilion Residences in Kuala Lumpur, police seized RM114 million in 26 foreign currencies. They also seized 37 luggage bags containing jewellery and other valuables.

The raiding party left the bungalow today at 3.10pm in five cars and a van. Putrajaya auxiliary cops are left to guard the premises and it is unclear if the CCID team will return.

CCID director Amar Singh Ishar Singh confirmed his men raided the property, who were acting with the authority granted by the Anti-Money Laundering, Anti-terrorism Financing and Proceeds of Unlawful Activities Act 2001. – THE MALAYSIAN INSIGHT
