Located in the coveted Bird Streets on a pie-shaped promontory known as the Crown, the 1.2-acre complex was famously owned by Jho Low.

KUALA LUMPUR: The High Court here has allowed the Federal Government to seize RM48mil from the bank accounts of Tan Sri Larry Low Hock Peng, the father of fugitive businessman Low Taek Jho or better known as Jho Low.

Justice Mohamed Zaini Mazlan made the ruling on Friday (July 19) in favour of the application from Deputy Public Prosecutor Aaron Chelliah after no third party turned up to contest the forfeiture of monies worth over RM48mil from seven bank accounts belonging to Hock Peng.
