Property boss had his bank accounts unfrozen just two weeks after the former finance minister wrote to Tommy Thomas, exchanges reveal. FMTNwews 1MDB LimGuanEng TommyThomas

ByLim Guan Eng had written to Tommy Thomas asking him to lift the freeze on bank accounts belonging to a property tycoon, documents reveal.

This was despite MACC informing Thomas that the bulk of the money – some RM3.9 million – could not be recovered as it was no longer in one of the bank accounts said to have received the funds.“Any request to unlock a frozen account should have been made through a representation from the tycoon’s lawyer. Going through the minister was not only a conflict of interest but also breached the confidentiality of our investigations to politicians.

“This means that the tycoon would only have paid about 12% of what he received,” another source from the AGC told FMT. Riza was charged with money laundering amounting to US$248 million paid to his Hollywood production company Red Granite Pictures – money said to be linked to 1MDB.

Menarik. Dari mana dia dapat maklumat ni?

faizalhamssin does FMT often publish content from 'a special correspondent'?

Pokoknya perompak kena pergi penjara .ramai perompak bkn kepala perompak aja.yg aneh pencuri tepi jln pula pi penjara🤦‍♂️

The AG has to obey whatever DAP's command. This is the rule of law, under DAP.

Malaysia must investigate Lim and Thomas for all these behind the scene acts if not Rakyat felt they had been betrayed! No wonder someone resigned instantly once the head changed!

Sounds like the MACC i/c have an axe to grind with the former AG....

Abuse of power, plain & simple. So dap not so clean after all. dapmalaysia guanenglim limkitsiang syahredzan An investigation should be carried out.

Sial punya komunis

Wow salah guna kuasa oleh puak PH

GG TOM AND ENG... 😂 😂

No case, so accounts unfrozen. Anything wrong with this?

Two incompetent buddies under a failed government. Never again PH.

Rakyat is tired lah reading all these misdoings. You know who you are...Please take action.....

v can learn fm this, Malaysians. Keep changing govt, until d new 1 v elected cannot find anything 'stinking' 2 reveal.

MuhyiddinYassin chedetofficial anwaribrahim guanenglim limkitsiang To me all Malaysian Politicians tak boleh pakai. Now masa COVID-19, instead of finding SOLUTIONS for the RAKYAT for this problem & its repercussions, you jokers are creating MORE problemS! I hate all of you.

Not surprise with this news. The previous AG did that.

Corrupt PH minister

Sprm should investigate if there is a case of power abuse by these people.

Who is this special correspondent? Latheefa's brother in FMT? Sri Ram? Azam Baki? 🤭🤭

Diversion tactic. Looks like Najis is getting freed very soon.

FMT now beginning to sound like Petra’s Malaysia Today. One wonder why LGE just didn’t call instead of leaving paper trails if it true in the first place and why should the the money still be frozen when the case was dropped?

Lol. Developer’s Action Party.

LGE request? This FM is very powerful. Mana tu CAT? Baru rasa fed minister saja sudah tunjuk kuasa. If Rakyat depend on you guys...lama sudah PH tumbang lo. Rakyat are so blessed that Tun is still around. And more stronger this time.

That's the thing. If all go bypass Tun and do whatever the want mana nak capai amalan CAT. Cakap satu buat plak yg lain. Letih la. Luckily to have Tun.

Haha. Further proof that at the end of the day, politicians are the same all over. Bersih my foot.

Aaah! This is out coz y’day Abah & DUMBNO true colors were shown to the world, kan!
