Amhari: I did not declare US$200,000 loan from Jho Low for property purchase

KUALA LUMPUR: Despite then being a public servant, Datuk Amhari Efendi Nazaruddin did not declare the US$200,000 loan he received from fugitive businessman Low Taek Jho, better known as Jho Low, in 2010, the High Court heard.

Amhari, who was former special officer to Datuk Seri Najib Razak, said this under cross-examination by defence counsel Tan Sri Muhammad Shafee Abdullah during day six of the former prime minister's 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) corruption trial on Tuesday (Sept 10).
