Prime Minister Najib Razak has been urged to answer to the latest allegations reported in the Wall Street Journal today that investigators have found links between the scandal ridden 1MDB and the PM’s bank accounts.
“The revelation by Wall Street Journal (WSJ) and Sarawak Report that implicates Najib Razak in the latest scandal involving 1MDB is nothing less than earth-shattering shocking.
“If the contents of these reports are true, then Najib could be the first prime minister in Malaysian history to be probed, charged and convicted of Criminal Breach of Trust (CBT) or offences under the Malaysia Anti Corruption Commission Act 2009.
“I think the prime minister owes Malaysians an explanation,” said PKR Bukit Batu assemblyperson Jimmy Puah in a statement today.
Pua, who is also PKR Johor deputy chairperson, was responding to the report WSJ claims is based on documents from a Malaysian government probe, which both the international financial newspaper and whistleblower website Sarawak Report claim they have obtained.
He said it was “disheartening to note” that the reports claim the relevant documents have allegedly been in the Malaysian law enforcement agencies’ possession.
“Perhaps this would be an appropriate time for the attorney-general (AG) to break his silence on this matter,” said Pua. - M'kini
