: The High Court today was told that 1Malaysia Development Berhad board of directors was misled when its management had given the illusion that 1MDB investment monies were coming back into the state fund in 2014.
Muhammad Shafee was referring the 13th prosecution witness to a specific briefing by Azmi during the board meeting where he told the BOD that a total of US$870 million had been redeemed as of October 2014 and another US$300 millon will be redeemed within the next few days. The court had earlier heard that Brazen Sky Ltd is a Special Purpose Vehicle set up by fugitive financier Low Taek Jho or Jho Low and his associates to repatriate investment monies by 1MDB.
Earlier, the witness agreed to a suggestion by Muhammad Shafee that in order to carry out an initial public offering , the management of 1MDB has convinced the board of directors to borrow US$250 million and US$975 million from Deutsche Bank Singapore, respectively in May and Aug, 2014.Previously, former 1MDB chief executive officer Mohd Hazem Abd Rahman confirmed that a total of RM49 million originating from the said bank loans taken by 1MDB wound up in Najib’s bank account in AmIslamic Bank.
