MACC officer ‘unsatisfied’ over Riyadh trip for 1MDB probe


PUTRAJAYA: A team from the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) had gone to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia as part of the 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) investigation but the purported trip was nothing short of a simple excursion to “cut-and-paste statement, eat and go home”, the High Court heard.

MACC’s senior assistant superintendent of the anti-money laundering division (Amla) Nasharudin Amir testified that as the investigating officer, he was unsatisfied that the “Arab prince” met by the team was Prince Saud Abdulaziz bin Majid Al Saud.
