‘Management responsible for funds transfer, not Najib’

KUALA LUMPUR: Datuk Seri Najib Razak had never directed 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) to transfer a total of US$1.03bil to a company owned by fugitive businessman Low Taek Jho or Jho Low, the High Court has heard.

Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission senior officer Nur Aida Arifin said 1MDB’s top management was responsible for the transactions between 1MDB and Low’s company Good Star Ltd.
