KUALA LUMPUR: The late principal private secretary to former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak had to firefight the damage caused by media reports on the 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) scandal as he was the one who knew the most about the state fund.
When news of the scandal broke, Datuk Seri Azlin Alias did not take it as a big issue as the reports had then focused on fugitive financier Low Taek Jho’s lavish lifestyle and not directly on Najib, the High Court was told yesterday.
