Zahid denies reports on Dewan Rakyat answer over Jho Low
(Bernama) – Following is the deputy prime minister’s statement on his answer to Datuk Seri Mohamed Azmin Ali’s supplementary question about Interpol’s assistance to locate businessman Low Taek Jho or Jho Low, at the Dewan Rakyat sitting here yesterday.
“The Deputy Prime Minister’s Office strongly refuted social media reports which have manipulated the answer given by Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi that the police are seeking Interpol’s assistance to locate businessman Jho Low.
“The Deputy Prime Minister in his reply to Gombak MP’s supplementary question at the Parliament sitting today (yesterday) clearly stated that there was no case to be convicted.
“Good relation between PDRM and Interpol was well established in the investigation of this case.
“As at today, police have closed the case file and there were no other requests made by Interpol concerning the case.
“However, the social media reports implied that new efforts were being done to locate Jho Low. That is so untrue.”
