KUALA LUMPUR: "Boss will take care" – these were the exact words used by fugitive financier Low Taek Jho to convince two of former premier Datuk Seri Najib Razak's aides to open bank accounts in foreign countries.

The accounts with BSI Bank in Singapore that he asked them to open were meant to be "standby accounts" for Najib's political funds for the 13th General Election, the High Court here heard on Wednesday (Sept 4).
