‘Aide to Jho Low wrote Saudi donation letter for Najib’


KUALA LUMPUR: Fugitive businessman Low Taek Jho, known as Jho Low, ordered an aide to prepare a “donation letter” from an Arab royalty to justify money that was funnelled into Datuk Seri Najib Razak’s bank account, the High Court here was told.

Former 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) general counsel Jasmine Loo said she had seen a draft of the letter on the screen of a computer at London’s Mayfair Hotel business centre room in early 2015.
