Actor Leonardo DiCaprio testifies in the trial of rapper Prakazrel"Pras" Michel of The Fugees hip hop group, who is accused of illegally taking tens of millions of dollars to lobby the U.S. government on behalf of a Malaysian financier and the Chinese government, in this courtroom sketch in U.S. District Court in Washington, US, April 3, 2023.

The “Titanic” star, called to testify by the prosecution, is not accused of wrongdoing in what has become one of the biggest embezzlement cases in the world. He was then regularly invited to parties by Low, including a New Year’s Eve celebration in which revelers flew from Australia to the United States on a private plane – in order to see the clocks strike midnight twice.

“I was given a green light by my team as well as the studios to accept Mr. Low’s funding,“ DiCaprio said. “That means that the background check was fine and that he was seen as a legitimate businessperson.”But in 2015, the actor said, he cut ties with Low after suspicions surfaced around his connection to the disappearance of billions of dollars from 1MDB’s accounts.
