| The High Court in Kuala Lumpur was today told that Nik Faisal Ariff Kamil was recruited into 1MDB in 2011 from UBG , a company owned by fugitive businessperson Low Taek Jho or Jho Low.

"Actually, I had earlier asked Casey Tang whether he was willing to take the CIO post... before asking Low if he had other recommendations. He suggested Nik Faisal, that was how Nik Faisal’s name came up," he said when cross-examined by Najib's lead counsel Muhammad Shafee Abdullah on the 34th day trial of the former premier's 1MBD case.

"Regarding Ong Gim Huat’s appointment as a non-executive director, he too was brought in by Low. We were in the process of expanding and trying to achieve Najib's 1Malaysia aspiration. Low said he had talked to Najib about it," he added.Shafee then referred Shahrol to a minute of meeting of the 1MDB board minutes where Ong informed the board about the Public Account Committee’s request for the 1MDB quarterly risk report.
