MACC deputy chief commissioner Datuk Seri Mohd Shukri Abdull said the statements were recorded by MACC officers, adding that he had yet to read the statements made by Jho Low and Suboh.
He however, declined to divulge further on the statements.
Touching on MACC's intention to question Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak, he said the commission was waiting for Najib to respond.
"I hope the PM will respond on this as soon as possible but it is all up to him because he is quite busy at the moment," Shukri told reporters after attending the commission's gala dinner last night officiated by Dewan Negara Speaker, Tan Sri Abu Zahar Ujang.
On November 12, MACC chief commissioner Tan Sri Abu Kassim Mohamed said the commission had contacted the Prime Minister's Office over the matter, and Najib had agreed to have his statement recorded.
He said MACC was waiting for a date to interview Najib on the issues related to the investigation.
On the same day, Najib said he would give a statement to MACC, after Attorney-General Tan Sri Mohamed Apandi Ali told him that he was required to give a statement to the commission in connection with the issue on political fund, so that investigations can be completed as soon as possible.
