Najib Abdul Razak has claimed that his administration was cheated by fugitive businessperson Jho Low, who has been accused of masterminding the 1MDB scandal.
"Yes...This is the conclusion if we consider what we know today. This is actually (what happened)," the former premier told a live interview with Sinar Harian this morning.
He was responding to a question from Karangkraf executive editorial advisor Abdul Jalil Ali.
Najib also claimed to be in the dark regarding the alleged misappropriation of 1MDB funds and criticised those who were dealing with 1MDB, including Goldman Sachs, for not alerting Malaysia.
"Back then, we appointed lawyers, auditors and Goldman Sachs, a well-known investment bank in the world, to look after the interest of Malaysia.
"So, if they had failed to take care of the interest of Malaysia, how should I know (what happened)? They should have informed (me) that something was not right," he said.
