KUALA LUMPUR: The High Court heard that Datuk Seri Najib Razak asked that the issue of two differing versions of 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) financial statements not be included in the final audit report, promising an investigation into it later.

Tan Sri Ambrin Buang, who was the auditor-general at the time, said he agreed to this request based on Najib's promise.

Ambrin said Najib asked him for a briefing on serious issues that were found during the audit, and so he raised the matter of 1MDB having two different financial statements. The court had earlier heard a testimony from Ali, who had said he called a meeting on Feb 24, 2016, with 1MDB and other relevant agencies to discuss amendments to 1MDB’s audit report.

During the meeting, Ambrin said NAD was pressured to listen to the response from 1MDB about its findings.
