Malaysia’s government challenged a 2017 arbitration settlement between the two sides in the UK, arguing that Abu Dhabi state-owned International Petroleum Investment Co. and Aabar Investments were aware of fraud allegations against former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak at the time the deal was struck.
