Stealth recording of 1MDB audit meeting did not breach the code of conduct, High Court hears

KUALA LUMPUR: Audit director Nor Salwani Muhammad did not breach any code of conduct when she slipped a recording device in a pencil box to capture audio during a coordination meeting discussing amendments to the 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) audit report on Feb 24,2016, the High Court heard.

Former auditor-general Tan Sri Ambrin Buang said that Nor Salwani – then a deputy audit director – was part of the National Audit Department team and was supposed to take notes. However, she ended up outside the meeting room as there was not enough space inside.
