KUALA LUMPUR: A witness told the High Court here that she was unsure if the process involving the issuance of a letter of support (LOS) for the RM1bil loan application submitted by 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) to the Finance Ministry (MOF) was brought up in Parliament.

Former Finance Ministry deputy secretary-general Datuk Siti Zauyah Mohd Desa, 63, said normally, the MOF would conduct due diligence and go through the required process, namely presenting loan matters to the Cabinet and subsequently in Parliament for approval.

She said this when cross-examined by lawyer Wan Aizuddin Wan Mohammed who was representing former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak at the trial involving the misappropriation of RM2.3bil from 1MDB. Wan Aizuddin: Can Datuk explain how Datuk Seri Najib’s instructions were conveyed? Formally or otherwise?Wan Aizuddin: So what was the basis of your statement? Something must have happened or there must have been a specific document for you to make such a statement.Wan Aizuddin then referred to the addition made by Siti Zauyah in her witness statement, where she stated that she had applied to obtain documents related to 1MDB from the Prime Minister’s Office, but had not received any response.
