PETALING JAYA: CIMB Group chairman Datuk Seri Nazir Razak has addressed the furore following a report by The Wall Street Journal that he confirmed receiving about US$7mil (RM29.45mil) from the Prime Minister for distribution to Barisan Nasional politicians.
“Understand furore and with hindsight wish I didn’t. In run up to GE13, I was asked by my brother/party president to urgently help pass on cash to party machinery,” said Nazir, who is the younger brother of Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak, on his Instagram post.
