Shahrol adds that he saw Jho Low was someone who"had the approval of the then Yang di-Pertuan Agong". He also agrees that it would be wrong for anyone to suggest that it was the idea of Najib Abdul Razak to create TIA as sovereign wealth fund for Terengganu and then to federalise the company.Former 1MDB CEO Shahrol Azral Ibrahim Halmi agrees with the defence that former prime minister Najib Abdul Razak was not involved in the early days of the sovereign wealth fund's predecessor, Terengganu Investment Authority .

Shafee: At this early stage of TIA, Najib was not involved, with Goldman Sachs already there with another consulting firm, and with advice from Jho Low?Jho Low was there to ensure his advice is followed. You attended and you know about Jho Low's idea.

Ninth witness Shahrol says this during cross-examination by lead defence counsel Muhammad Shafee Abdullah.
