I assumed Najib knew about 1MDB monies going through fiduciary funds, ex-bank officer tells court


KUALA LUMPUR: A former Singaporean bank officer has told the High Court that he assumed Datuk Seri Najib Razak knew about the flow of funds transacted by 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) and three companies through fiduciary funds.

Kevin Michael Swampillai, 59, who is the ex-head of wealth management services at BSI Bank, testified that he formed the impression based on the fact that SRC International Sdn Bhd – one of the 1MDB-linked clients of BSI – was a company owned by the Finance Ministry at the time when Najib was finance minister.
