1MDB audit tampering trial: Ambrin should've decided what information to be included, excluded in report, says witness


KUALA LUMPUR: The High Court here was told on Wednesday (April 13) that former auditor-general Tan Sri Ambrin Buang should have decided on what information to be included and excluded in the 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) final audit report as he was the one having the ultimate authority at the point of time.

Tan Sri Dr Madinah Mohamad, who took over the role from Ambrin in 2017, said it was still the prerogative of Ambrin then to decide whether or not to accept suggestions made by auditee.
