KUALA LUMPUR: A former 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) chairman told the High Court that fugitive financier Low Taek Jho was seen in Datuk Seri Najib Razak’s office even before the Pekan MP took office as the prime minister.

Tan Sri Mohd Bakke Salleh, 68, testified that he had met Low – better known as Jho Low – several times at Najib’s office in Putrajaya when he was still the defence minister and the deputy prime minister.
