Serious business: Johan showing the police report he lodged at the Dang Wangi police station in Kuala Lumpur.

KUALA LUMPUR: Lembaga Tabung Haji has denied that its move to acquire a parcel of land in the Tun Razak Exchange (TRX) financial district for RM188.5mil is a bailout of 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB), which owns the land.
