Shafee claims that in pleading guilty, Leissner had alleged that he received money from wanted businessperson Jho Low and caused these funds to transfer to shell companies beneficially owned by 1MDB Officer 2, whom Shafee claims was Shahrol.This is Tim Leissner's in mitigation .

The witness then agrees with Shafee's suggestions that without the negative publicity by the then opposition, the 1MDB IPO plans would have worked out and that the country would not suffer from the company’s failure today."I was Team Najib, I was playing my role". Shafee then asks Shahrol why the witness does not do anything about it in regards to being cut off during questioning by the PAC panel led by Rompin MP Hasan Arifin.

Shahrol says he began to doubt Jho Low only around 2015 while he did not doubt the fugitive financier in 2009.As a CEO, if you had implicit and explicit trust , you would not blame my client the former prime minister . You yourself got conned .Shahrol:At this juncture, Kuala Lumpur High Court judge Collin Lawrence Sequerah adjourns proceedings for lunch break.

He also agrees that it would be wrong for anyone to suggest that it was the idea of Najib Abdul Razak to create TIA as sovereign wealth fund for Terengganu and then to federalise the company.Former 1MDB CEO Shahrol Azral Ibrahim Halmi agrees with the defence that former prime minister Najib Abdul Razak was not involved in the early days of the sovereign wealth fund's predecessor, Terengganu Investment Authority .
