No information received about intended donations into Najib’s account, says Zeti


KUALA LUMPUR: Former Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) governor Tan Sri Dr Zeti Akhtar Aziz told the High Court on Thursday (July 27) that the former Group Managing Director of AmBank Group never mentioned any intended donations that were to be remitted into Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak’s AmBank account.

Zeti, 76, said Cheah Tek Kuang had paid her a courtesy visit at BNM on Jan 28, 2011 and informed that Najib, who was then the Prime Minister was opening an account with AmIslamic Bank Berhad and that his account would be referred to in a code for the ROMS (Ringgit Operations Monitoring System).
