‘Najib and Arul Kanda amended 1MDB audit report to cover themselves’


KUALA LUMPUR: Datuk Seri Najib Razak and Arul Kanda Kandasamy ordered the final audit report of 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) to be amended to protect themselves against any civil or criminal action, the High Court heard.

Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) Investigation Branch Senior Supt Haniff Lami, 34, who is the investigating officer, said Najib used his power as the then prime minister and finance minister to order that the report be amended before it was tabled to the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) on Feb 24, 2016.
