Ex-CEO denies any wrongdoing on his watch


KUALA LUMPUR: Former 1MDB chief executive officer Datuk Shahrol Azral Ibrahim Halmi insists that there was no wrongdoing or illegal activity in the company under his watch.

In a statement issued here yesterday, Shahrol Azral said that during the course of investigations into the company, he had appeared before the members of the PAC and given them a full and honest account of his time as the chief executive of 1MDB.

“I will continue to extend my full cooperation, confident in the know­ledge that I have done no wrong and have nothing to hide,” he said.

The PAC, in its 1MDB Governance Management Control Report re­­leased in the Dewan Rakyat yesterday, asked the authorities to investigate Shahrol Azral and other relevant officers.

It said Shahrol Azral must take responsibility for the government-owned strategic investment company's weaknesses and shortcomings. — Bernama.
