Ex-1MDB CFO: Najib ‘ultimate power’ in 1MDB, ‘proxy’ Jho Low said orders came from PM

KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 11 — Datuk Seri Najib Razak was the “ultimate power” in government-owned company 1Malaysia Development Berhad as all important financial decisions had to be approved by him as the prime minister then, former chief financial officer Azmi Tahir told the High Court today.

Azmi said Azlin wanted to introduce him to and have him meet an important person in 1MDB who is Low — better known as Jho Low, noting: “This was the first time I heard of an individual named Jho Low who was introduced as 1MDB adviser to Datuk Seri Najib.” After the meeting which Azlin had not attended, Azmi said he then checked with Azlin and that the latter confirmed what Low had said.

Azmi said that Azlin had told him that Low is an “adviser or person close to the prime minister who is Datuk Seri Najib” and that Low’s instructions are from the prime minister. Azmi today claimed that Low had planned secret actions for 1MDB with Najib’s alleged “blessing” and via the placement of selected persons in 1MDB’s senior management and board of directors to enable such secret moves to be done.

“Officers that are in this work in silo system are forced to follow Jho Low’s instructions as each instruction from him is an instruction from Datuk Seri Najib, and this is in line with Article 117 of the Memorandum and Articles of Association of 1MDB as each important decision has to be under the prime minister’s order and approval.
