Judge Mohd Nazlan being investigated for unexplained RM1 million in his bank account
It is said the RM1,036,127.40 in cash which Nazlan banked into his Maybank account is part of the RM2 million he received from Jho Low for “services rendered”. What services was this and since Jho Low is linked to 1MDB does this not pose a serious conflict of interest?

It looks like the controversy surrounding the judge in Najib Tun Razak’s SRC International case, Mohd Nazlan Mohd Ghazali, is not just about his undeclared conflict of interest. There is now the investigation regarding the unexplained RM1,036,127.40 that has suspiciously appeared in his Maybank account number XXXXXXXX0433.
This money came in during the time Nazlan was the group general counsel and company secretary of Maybank. And it is suspected that it is tied to the decision Maybank made to create SRC International.
1MDB’s minutes of meeting reveals that the proposal to form SRC came from Maybank and not from Najib, as judge Nazlan stated in his written judgement on why he finds Najib guilty
In his judgement, Nazlan said Najib created SRC as a means to steal 1MDB’s money. Now it has been revealed that the proposal to form SRC came from Maybank and not from Najib. And this is recorded in 1MDB’s minutes of the meeting.
Hence Nazlan’s judgement is flawed. And the fact that Nazlan used this excuse as one of the reasons to find Najib guilty raises the allegation of a flawed trial, not only marred by Nazlan’s conflict of interest but also by the grounds as to why he finds Najib guilty.
It is said the RM1,036,127.40 in cash which Nazlan banked into his Maybank account is part of the RM2 million he received from Jho Low for “services rendered”. What services was this and since Jho Low is linked to 1MDB does this not pose a serious conflict of interest?
The timing of the “services rendered” fee makes it impossible to deny any conflict of interest. The date coincides with the date of 1MDB’s RM6.17 billion loan and the decision 1MDB made on the acquisition of Tanjung Energy Holdings Sdn Bhd.
Judge Nazlan was very much part of the 1MDB money heist involving Jho Low, Jasmine Loo, Terence Geh and Tim Leissner
Also involved in this exercise are Jho Low, Jasmine Loo, Terence Geh and Tim Leissner, all who are implicated in the 1MDB money heist. And Nazlan was very much part of this gang of thieves.
Nazlan should not only be disqualified from hearing the SRC case, but the trial should be declared a mistrial and Nazlan should be arrested and charged for corruption.
Why is Nazlan not being called up by the MACC to explain the RM2 million he received from Jho Low? It looks like Nazlan committed conflict of interest not only in Najib’s SRC trial but also in the decision to create SRC, and the decision regarding the RM6.17 billion loan and the acquisition of Tanjung Energy Holdings Sdn Bhd.
Tunggu apa lagi, MACC?
