The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) has claimed it has reviewed emails allegedly showing attempts by a close ally of US President Donald Trump to negotiate a deal with businessman Low Taek Jho to have the US investigations into 1MDB dropped.
According to the daily last night, venture capitalist and a longtime Republican donor Elliott Broidy and his wife, Robin Rosenzweig, an attorney, in a draft proposal asked a US$75 million (RM295 million) fee “if the Justice Department quickly drops its investigation”.
“The details of the purported effort to influence the Justice Department investigation were included in a cache of emails from Mr Broidy’s and his wife’s email accounts that were provided to the Journal,” reported the daily.
Malaysiakini cannot independently verify the report, and has contacted the Prime Minister’s Office for its response.
