KUALA LUMPUR: The Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) officer who ordered the raid on the Raja Chulan Ambank branch did so because there was suspicion of illicit banking activity, the High Court heard.

Ahmad Farhan Sharifuddin, 32, said he received orders from Financial Intelligence and Enforcement Department director Abd Rahman Abd Bakar to investigate the Ambank group over a suspected offence under Section 4 of the Anti-Money Laundering, Anti-Terrorism Financing and Proceeds of Unlawful Activities Act 2001.

The team included search officer Azizul Adzani Abdul Ghafar, 41, who obtained four folders of documents related to the opening of Datuk Seri Najib Razak's bank accounts, three more folders with documents for opening SRC International's accounts and one folder for opening an account for a subsidiary of SRC International, Gandingan Mentari Sdn Bhd.

Defence Lawyer Harvinderjit Singh said:"come on, lah, tuan, let's be real here, you're not being honest. Were you given a briefing to attend the trial and not give an honest testimony?"The accusations were raised during cross examination over his police report, which the lawyer said touch on a Part 2 of the Amlatfpuaa versus his testimony that the raid was under Part 4.

BNM raids AmBank branchKUALA LUMPUR: Bank Negara raided an AmBank branch just four days after the Wall Street Journal broke a story about an investigation into 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) where nearly US$700mil (RM2.88bil) were believed to have been channelled into Datuk Seri Najib Razak’s personal accounts, the High Court heard. This proven ? BNM have been abetting by “not” taking action ? Is equally guilty as charge if this is found a crime ? By laws !!! The “Governor on duty” is accountable to this charge !!! 6 july raided Ambank & 29 July Najadi was gunned down. Coincidence? *raided. Getting cheap clicks is not an excuse to intentionally use incorrect grammar.

Plain and simple. Even the RM9.5 million turdhead cannot argue that the documents are forgeries or made up. MO1 was too arrogant (and being a dumbass, of course), that he didn't even bother to have his cronies operate the accounts.
