Infamous fugitive Jho Low has been on the run from the Malaysian authorities for the longest time.
But it looks like that may be coming to an end soon.
According to Project Brazen co-founder and Billion Dollar Whale co-author Bradley Hope, China is allegedly in the talks of giving up Jho Low.
He wrote, “Back in January, we speculated that the arrival of a new Prime Minister in Malaysia and China’s interest in repairing its relations with a key strategic country in the South China Sea had increased the odds for a deal over the fugitive fraudsters Low Taek Jho (a.k.a Jho Low, a.k.a The Billion Dollar Whale).”
“Today (April 20), we heard from multiple sources that such an arrangement is being hotly debated inside the Malaysian government in the wake of PM Anwar Ibrahim’s trip to China in March. During this trip, Anwar met high-level government officials as well as representatives of China Communications Construction Company (CCCC).”
Bradley explained that such a deal would involve wiping the slate clean over China’s involvement with deals structured by Jho Low to cover up the 1MDB fraud, China’s attempts to bolster former Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak’s political career including with cash support and more.
“This would be huge, fascinating and mark the end of the main storyline of the 1MDB scandal – from its founding in 2009 to collapse amid scandal in 2015 and all the insane partying and spending along the way until 2023.”
“It could also mean a big cash recovery for Malaysia too, because Jho – by our estimates and sources who have followed the case closely – still controls a multi-billion dollar cash hoard,” he added.
We genuinely hope that this is true because it would be amazing to finally see Jho Low being brought to justice.
