The Umno supreme council today took note of the fact that 'Malaysian Official 1' was mentioned in the US Department of Justice’s 1MDB lawsuits, said Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak.

"We noticed that, we noted that and the position has been explained at to the public," Najib told a press conference in Kuala Lumpur today.

The Umno president said this when asked if the party supreme council had talked about Malaysian Official 1 during its meeting earlier in the day.
