FBI starts probe on 1MDB, says WSJ
The US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has reportedly initiated a probe into allegations of money laundering related to the debt ridden 1MDB.
According to financial daily The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) this morning, a source reported this development in the midst of the detention of Umno former leader Khairuddin Abu Hassan.
Khairuddin was barred from leaving the country this week, foiling his plan to travel to the US to meet the FBI over a complaint against 1MDB, and is now being remanded.
WSJ reported that the scope of FBI’s current investigation is not yet known and that FBI has not revealed any knowledge of Khairuddin’s planned visit.
“A spokeswoman for the FBI’s New York office said that no agent in the office had arranged to speak with Khairuddin or had any previous contact with him,” wrote WSJ.
