PUTRAJAYA: Ad hoc prosecutor Datuk V. Sithambaram today told the Court of Appeal that Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak’s act in returning a portion of ‘Arab donation’ to an alleged sender without any explanation or a thank-you letter shows that the so-called Arab donation was a scam.
He said that if the donation was from the late King Abdullah Abdulaziz Al Saud why should it be returned to a company called Tanore Finance Corp.
“The King never asked for the money back. In fact, the appellant (Najib) said the money was donated by the Saudi King to ensure Malaysia can become the model of a stable and modern Islamic country.
KUALA LUMPUR (Feb 8): The Malaysian government, through the Inland Revenue Board (IRB), had filed a RM68 million suit against Jho Low s right-hand man Eric Tan Kim Loong, a.k.a Fat Eric , seeking tax arrears from 2010 to 2013.
The application was filed at the KL High Court on Jan 15, 2021, where Tan is named as the sole defendant in documents sighted by theedgemarkets.com. His IC number in the suit matches the one on a police notice issued on him.
The case management of the case is due on Monday (tomorrow, Jan 8) and until press time neither Tan nor his lawyer has entered an appearance.
