Apandi lashes out at Swiss AG

PETALING JAYA: Malaysia did not accede to Switzerland’s previous requests to collaborate in the probe related to the 1MDB scandal for fear of prejudice to domestic investigations of the case, says former Attorney General Tan Sri Mohamed Apandi Ali

“I recall that in my written reply to Switzerland, as the AG then, that since the Malaysian investigation was still ongoing, to accede to the Swiss request could prejudice the criminal matter in Malaysia,” he said when asked to comment on Michael Lauber’s statement to reporters on Tuesday.
