NewsTranscript
00:00Najib Razak dismissed allegations that he disbanded a special task force investigating 1MDB when he was Prime Minister in 2015.
00:10Najib said the task force was dissolved following an administrative decision communicated at the appropriate institutional level.
00:18He said the accusations against him were a deliberate distortion of the facts and represented an attempt to sensationalise the 1MDB case.
00:27The prosecution contends that Najib dismissed then-Attorney General Abdul Ghani Patel,
00:32Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission Chief Commissioner Abu Qasim Mohamad, and disbanded the task force.
00:38In response, Najib said former Bank Negara Malaysia Governor Zeti Akhtar Aziz revealed that Apandi Ali,
00:45who took over as Attorney General from Ghani, had told her that the task force was not needed.
00:51He said the dissolution of the task force had no impact on the investigations into 1MDB as Bank Negara had already launched its own probe.
01:00Najib said the Public Accounts Committee also continued its hearings while other law enforcement agencies actively pursued their own inquiries.
