Lawyer: Jho Low’s mum's bungalow shouldn't be subject to forfeiture


KUALA LUMPUR (Bernama): The High Court here on Monday (April 5) was told that a bungalow in Tanjung Bungah, Penang, owned by Puan Sri Goh Gaik Ewe, the mother of fugitive businessman, Low Taek Jho, or Jho Low, should not be a subject matter on the ongoing forfeiture suit, as it is not related to the 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) scandal.

Lawyer M. Puravalen, who is representing Goh, 69, submitted that no averments were made regarding the house, which was built on two plots of land purchased by Goh back in 1990 and 1993, based on the sale and purchase agreement produced in court today.
