Former Chief Secretary to the Government, Tan Sri Dr Ali Hamsa told the High Court, here, today that the 1Malaysia Development Berhad audit report coordination meeting on Feb 24, 2016 would not have taken place if the meeting with Datuk Seri Najib Abdul Razak did not happen two days earlier.
Previously, Ali had testified that during the coordination meeting chaired by him, there were four issues agreed upon to be removed from the 1MDB audit report, including two conflicting versions of the company’s 2014 financial report.Ali: It would not have taken place because when the prime minister promised that he would ‘get to the bottom of it’, the Auditor-General agreed to attend the meeting.
