Allegations that the US Department of Justice (DOJ) was out to topple BN as the ruling party was invalid because they were not the only country investigating matters related to 1MDB, said Kuala Terengganu MP Raja Kamarul Bahrin Shah Raja Ahmad.

"The US is not the only country that has taken legal action against 1MDB, countries like Abu Dhabi, Singapore, Switzerland, Luxembourg, Hong Kong and a few European countries have all taken similar legal action.

"Does it make sense that all these countries all hope to topple the Malaysian government?" asked Raja Kamarul Bahrin Shah in a statement today.

Aside from the three DOJ civil forfeiture suits, Singapore, Hong Kong and Swiss monetary authorities have all fined banks involved in transactions linked to 1MDB.
