A former 1MDB chief financial officer took instructions from Low Taek Jho because the businessman was introduced by then prime minister Najib Razak’s aide, the Kuala Lumpur High Court heard today.

Azmi Tahir said Jho Low was not a random stranger and he had no reason to suspect that the businessman’s instructions were in fact not from Najib, who had also briefed him at the prime minister’s private residence. – January 26, 2022.
