Only if it’s worthwhile, says PM on bringing jet back


KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia will seek to bring back the US$35mil (RM146mil) business jet linked to fugitive businessman Low Taek Jho if it is worthwhile, says Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad.

The Bombardier Global 5000 has come under the microscope again after a company which claimed ownership of the jet said a US federal court on Wednesday had approved an agreement between the US Department of Justice (DoJ) and the firm to start a bidding process to sell the jet.
