Jho Low’s denial ‘surprising’

KUALA LUMPUR: Datuk Seri Najib Razak’s former relationship manager at AmBank says she was surprised to hear that fugitive financier Low Taek Jho denied communicating with her over the management of the former premier’s bank accounts.

Joanna Yu, the 41st prosecution witness in the RM2.28bil 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) graft trial, has consistently told the High Court that she dealt with Low, better known as Jho Low, to get instructions on Najib’s accounts.
