Malaysia Prosecutor Says Saudis Made Legal 'Donation' to Leader

Malaysia's top prosecutor, attempting to extinguish a monthslong scandal, said a nearly $700 million transfer to Prime Minister Najib Razak's private bank account was an entirely legal "personal donation" from Saudi Arabia's royal family.
Attorney General Mohamed Apandi Ali's announcement was greeted with skepticism. A Saudi government official, while declining to comment specifically on the prosecutor's statement, said the Saudi ministries of foreign affairs and finance had no information about such a gift and that a royal donation to the personal bank account of a foreign leader would be unprecedented. Representatives of the royal family couldn't be reached for comment. Critics of the Malaysian prime minister said it was implausible the money had come as a personal donation.
Mr. Apandi said Tuesday all but $61 million of $681 million transferred in March 2013 was returned to the Saudis five months later. He said the Saudis asked for nothing in return for the gift.
The U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation and other government agencies from outside Malaysia continue to investigate the transfer. Some international investigators don't believe the nearly $700 million came from Saudi Arabia, according to a person familiar with the inquiries.
"The notion that the Saudi 'royals' would 'donate' hundreds of millions of dollars to a foreign leader, as opposed to a government institution, struck me as suspect, to say the least," Fahad Nazer, a senior political analyst at consultancy firm JTG, said in an email. Mr. Nazer previously worked as a political analyst at the Saudi Embassy in Washington. The alleged donation occurred in 2013, during the reign of the now-deceased King Abdullah.
The nearly $700 million transfer is the most explosive element of a wide-ranging scandal involving a Malaysian government investment fund, 1Malaysia Development Bhd., or 1MDB. The fund amassed billions of debt it has struggled to repay and is now selling off assets.
The Wall Street Journal reported in July that an earlier Malaysian government investigation found almost $700 million had entered Mr. Najib's accounts via banks, companies and entities linked to 1MDB, which Mr. Najib set up in 2009 to foster economic development.
That earlier investigation didn't name the funds' source or how they were used. Malaysia's central bank, the nation's antigraft body, a parliamentary committee and the auditor general went on to probe 1MDB and the transfers.
The scandal has led to calls for the resignation of Mr. Najib, who ran 1MDB. The Wall Street Journal reported in December that money from 1MDB was used to fund Mr. Najib's party in a tight 2013 election.
Mr. Najib didn't respond to questions about the transfer or the use of 1MDB money for the election. He has denied any wrongdoing or taking the money for personal gain.
The attorney general's four-page statement didn't address several questions Malaysian opposition figures have sought answers to, including: Who specifically donated the money? Why was it donated? Why did it take more than six months for the government to say where the money came from? And what happened to the money that wasn't returned?
The statement also didn't address why the money flowed to Mr. Najib's account through an anonymous British Virgin Islands company and a Swiss private bank wholly owned by an Abu Dhabi sovereign-wealth fund that is deeply intertwined with 1MDB.
Mr. Najib, who came to power in 2009, has sought to strengthen Malaysia's diplomatic and business ties with Gulf nations, including Saudi Arabia. Kuala Lumpur is a center for Islamic finance, and Malaysia was one of the first non- Arab countries to join the Saudi-led coalition fighting Houthi rebels in Yemen. The two nations are also majority Sunni Muslim though Saudi Arabia practices a more austere version than Malaysia.
"This is a no-win situation for Najib. Despite the AG decision, public perception will not be on his side," said Wan Saiful Wan Jan, chief executive of Malaysia-based think tank Institute for Democracy and Economic Affairs.
Mr. Najib, in a statement, welcomed the attorney general's decision but didn't give any further details on the transfers or acknowledge they came from Saudi Arabia.
"This issue has been an unnecessary distraction for the country," Mr. Najib said. "Now that the matter has been comprehensively put to rest, it is time for us to unite and move on."
Critics of Mr. Najib weren't satisfied by the attorney general's conclusions. They say the prime minister has stymied Malaysian investigations into 1MDB and the transfers, an allegation Mr. Najib hasn't specifically addressed.
Mr. Apandi "has provided no new or convincing information or arguments" to show the fund transfers were bona fide and not used for corruption, said Tony Pua, an opposition lawmaker.
Malaysia's former attorney general, who was coordinating investigations into 1MDB, stepped down in July. The government cited health reasons for his departure and Mr. Najib named Mr. Apandi as his successor. Mr. Najib fired a deputy prime minister who had been calling for stepped-up investigations into 1MDB's activities and promoted the head of the parliamentary committee into his cabinet, delaying the committee's probe into the fund.
That probe, and an investigation of 1MDB by the auditor general, are continuing.
Malaysia's central bank in October said it had recommended that Mr. Apandi begin criminal proceedings against 1MDB's management for allegedly breaking foreign-exchange rules. But Mr. Apandi declined to take action, saying there was insufficient evidence to proceed.
Attempts to reach 1MDB for comment weren't successful. The fund has denied wrongdoing and said it was cooperating with probes being conducted by the central bank and other investigating bodies.
The attorney general also addressed another, smaller transfer into Mr. Najib's private accounts, saying there was no evidence the prime minister was aware of or approved of the $14 million deposit. That transaction is significant because the money came from a unit of the finance ministry, which Mr. Najib runs. The money came via a body that had been used to send money to Mr. Najib's political allies during the 2013 election, the Journal reported in December. Mr. Najib didn't respond to requests for comment at the time.

Saudi Arabia's late King Abdullah personally authorized a US$681 million (S$974 million) payment to Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak, the BBC has reported.
Malaysia's attorney general revealed on Tuesday that the early-2013 payment, the subject of months of speculation, had come from the Saudi royal family and involved no corruption or improper conduct. Malaysia's prime minister had previously said that the cash was a private donation from a Middle Eastern donor that he declined to name.
Tuesday's revelation was the latest twist in a long-running political scandal around Najib and the country's ailing sovereign wealth fund Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB), the advisory board of which the prime minister leads.
On Wednesday the BBC reported that the cash - $620 million of which was returned to the donor a few months later - was paid by Saudi Arabia to Najib to help the prime minister win 2013 elections at a time when the Saudis were worried about the global influence of the Muslim Brotherhood.
At the time, the BBC said, Malaysia's opposition alliance included the Pan-Malaysian Islamic Party, which was loosely inspired by the Muslim Brotherhood.
A "well-placed Saudi source" told the BBC that the payment had been authorized by King Abdullah, and the funds came from his personal wealth as well as state funds.

The $681m (£479m) deposited in the bank account of Malaysian PM Najib Razak by Saudi Arabia was to help him win the 2013 elections, a Saudi source says.
Malaysia's attorney general cleared Mr Najib of allegations of corruption on Tuesday after ruling that the money was a donation from the Saudi royal family.
Mr Najib had denied that the money came from state investment fund 1MDB.
The Saudi source said the donation was made amid concern in Riyadh about the influence of the Muslim Brotherhood.
At the time, Malaysia's opposition alliance included the Pan-Malaysian Islamic Party (PAS). Its founders were inspired by the Brotherhood, although there is little evidence the Brotherhood actually has much support in Malaysia.
Mr Najib's coalition went on to win the election, but with one of its poorest showings in more than 50 years in power.

The secretive donation to Mr Najib was allegedly paid over in several wire transfers between late March 2013 and early April 2013, just ahead of the election on 5 May.
The well-placed Saudi source, who has asked not to be named, told the BBC the payment was authorised from the very top - from Saudi Arabia's late King Abdullah - with funds coming from both his personal finances and state funds.

A Saudi source said the donation was approved by the late King Abdullah
Prince Turki bin Abdullah, one of the king's sons, is reported to have had extensive business dealings in Malaysia.
The purpose of the donation was simple, said the Saudi source - it was to help Mr Najib and his coalition win the election, employing a strategic communications team with international experience, focusing on the province of Sarawak, and funding social programmes through party campaigning.
But why should the Saudis care about an election in a non-Arab country more than 6,000 km (3,700 miles) away? The answer, the source said, lay in their concerns over the rising power of the Muslim Brotherhood, which they consider a terrorist organisation.
The Saudis were already upset at events in Egypt, where President Mohammed Morsi was busy consolidating the Brotherhood's hold on the country.

Saudi Arabia was concerned by the rise of Mohammed Morsi's Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt
It would be another three months before Mr Morsi was to be deposed by the army, and the Saudis were convinced that the opposition was being supported by the Brotherhood and Qatar, which backed the Brotherhood and other Islamist groups in the Middle East.
'Very murky'
So how unusual is it for the Saudi royal family to hand over this amount of cash in a personal donation? Not at all, said the Saudi insider, adding that Jordan, Morocco, Egypt and Sudan have all been beneficiaries of multi-$100m donations from the Saudi royal purse.
"There is nothing unusual about this donation to Malaysia," he said. "It is very similar to how the Saudis operate in a number of countries."
Saudi Arabia was quick to support the overthrow of Mr Morsi in Egypt, providing the military-backed government with billions of dollars in aid and loans.

Jordan has been the beneficiary of more than $1bn in Saudi development funding, while Riyadh has deposited more than $1bn in Sudan's central bank and signed deals to finance dams on the Nile. Morocco has been provided with oil, financing, investments and jobs in recent years.
However, questions are still being asked about the secretive and convoluted nature of the money transfer, and the fact that Malaysia's prime minister returned 91% of it just four months later. The remaining $61m has not been accounted for.
A British corporate investigator with extensive experience of the Middle East told the BBC that the $681m was paid through the Singapore branch of a Swiss bank owned by the rulers of Abu Dhabi.
"It is very murky", he said. "This case will never be fully cleared up until the Saudis and the Malaysians release all the transaction data, and that has not happened."
There has been growing outrage in some circles in Malaysia that the attorney-general has closed the file on this case and cleared the prime minister of any offences.
Clare Rewcastle Brown, who has reported extensively on the issue for the Sarawak Report, said the claim that the payment to Mr Najib was a Saudi royal donation for political purposes needed to be treated "with considerable caution".
She told the BBC that the $681m was far more likely to be connected to money raised by 1MDB, much of which is reported to have gone missing.

From Rafidah Aziz:
WORK DONE..CASE CLOSED..MOVE ON....
I read all that has been written and announced ,regarding the "donation" issue.
It seems to be a simple open and shut case...yes ??
Of course the social media is now full of nasty comments ...and NEW questions have been asked regarding the AG's explanations..
I am not a lawyer..
But the AG should be prepared to explain the details ..and the implications of the decisions...
.....is it a Precedent set now, in how donations channeled to individuals, through private accounts, can be returned ...not necessarily in full..AND the slate is regarded clean ? No case ...?
People ask me what happened to the portion NOT returned ? The amount already utilized... How is that regarded legally ? I dont know ..
I hope that this will not open avenues for all kinds on interpretation, AND ABUSE, that people with dubious intent , will USE....to get out of whatever VIOLATION of the laws and regulations they have got themselves into..
Of course I can imagine our PM wanting so much to put all those issue behind him.
It certainly has been a huge distraction ..for him AND FOR ALL OF US !!
Its been like an albatross over his head..And a quagmire ...like a quicksand sensation.. for us on the ground...
Perhaps the most important LESSON that Pm would have, learnt is NEVER to go around seeking political donations from anyone ,that CANNOT be explained clearly, at first glance. AND NEEDING A LONG TIME TO EXPLAIN!
Especially from foreigners ! Or from ANYONE for that matter!
No matter how DIRE the need for funds..
The Party functioned SO WELL for decades..moved essentially by unity, comittment , dedication..and most importantly UNPAID work at the grassroots.
IT IS CALLED "SEMANGAT"
Remember what everyone said about how the late Tun Razak governed ? THE TEMPLATE IS THERE ALREADY...JUST IMPROVE ON IT..
I DO NOT for a moment believe we CAN heave that heavy sigh of relief.
There are ALL KINDS of "sighs"
out there. Disbelief..pain...anger..etc
PLEASE PAY ATTENTION. NEVER ASSUME that all is well.
NOW...what I REALLY want to say is..
....please SERIOUSLY go back to governing and administration.
......please FOCUS on what's ailing the Economy and Nation
......please FORGET the hype and slogans of communication..these only waste money and have superficial impact..
......please REIN IN your various teams..and REMIND them of the OATH OF OFFICE THAT THEY TOOK...Those Oaths were taken invoking the Almighty THREE TIMES !
JANGAN NANTI DIMAKAN SUMPAH..
.....please tell your teams to WORK MORE and talk less
......please DONT ALLOW LOOSE CANNONS IN YOUR TEAMS, CONTINUE TO CONFUSE AND UPSET the Rakyat
.....please AVOID any TOUCH and GO TYPE OF STRATEGIES...
......please DONT IGNORE THE PROBLEMS OF THE PRIVATE SECTOR...WHEN BUSINESSES FAIL, THE REPERCUSSIONS ARE PERVASIVE, AND SPREAD EFFECTS FAR REACHING.
.....please get the Public Service Delivery System to act expeditiously ..at all levels..to solve problems..
.....please put Politics at the back burner...and AVOID politicking of IMPORTANT issues..that is SO DIVISIVE ..
This is OUR COUNTRY...
the Leader's PROBLEMS BECOME OUR PROBLEMS TOO.
The TEAMS which collectively assist the Pm to govern, must understand shared and collective responsibility..TANGGONGJAWAB BERSAMA ..
JANGAN MENYOKONG MEMBAWA REBAH..
NOTHING IS EVER A SIMPLE OPEN AND SHUT CASE .
LET HONESTY AND INTEGRITY ALWAYS BE THE GUIDE AND MOTIVATOR.
JUST DO WHAT IS RIGHT...
EVEN IF IT IS NOT POPULAR...
PLEASE ALWAYS REMEMBER...
THE ALMIGHTY GOD ...IS ALL SEEING AND ALL KNOWING... |
