1MDB TRIAL | A former member of Low Taek Jho’s (Jho Low) inner circle claimed that the fugitive businessperson was behind the Arab letter linked to the purported promise of a royal donation to then prime minister Najib Abdul Razak.

1MDB’s former general counsel Jasmine Loo told the Kuala Lumpur High Court that Low was the one who directed his alleged late associate, Kee Kok Thiam, to prepare a copy of the letter to explain away the inflow of large amounts of funds into Najib’s account.
