Shocking amount: Some of the seized items, which included jewellery and luxury goods.
PUTRAJAYA: The Government will sell much of the huge stash of jewellery and luxury goods, including diamond necklaces, tiaras and designer handbags, that were seized in connection with the 1Malaysia Development Bhd probe of former leader Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak, said Finance Minister Lim Guan Eng.
Police said 12,000 pieces of jewellery, 567 handbags, 423 watches and 234 sunglasses were confiscated last month from properties linked to Najib after the shocking electoral defeat of his long-ruling coalition. The police valued the haul, the biggest in the country’s history, at RM1.1bil.
