PETALING JAYA: Najib Razak today questioned Pakatan Harapan’s move to push for Umno to be dissolved on grounds that it received RM212 million from him, which the ruling coalition claimed was from 1MDB. This, Najib said, includes at least RM304 million from Saudi’s finance ministry, which was transferred directly into his account.The Pekan MP said he also uploaded the relevant documents which confirmed the payments made by the Saudi finance ministry on social media.“RM304 million is also more than the RM270 million the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission wants to seize from 41 entities, including Umno,” he said in a Facebook post.

MACC had announced that it has filed civil forfeiture applications against 41 individuals and entities to recover money allegedly transferred from the account of the former prime minister.
