Jho Low Now 'Key Person of Interest' Says Singapore Police
Get it? Because the people's interest in him is rising? Like the rate of people who are interested in him is rising. Right?
According to a report by the WSJ, Singapore police disclosed in court Thursday that the Malaysian financier at the heart of a scandal involving the Malaysian state investment fund 1MDB is a person of interest in the city-state’s continuing probe into an alleged multibillion-dollar money-laundering scheme.
This is the first time that Low Taek Jho has been officially named in the investigation. His location isn't known and he continues to move around the world freely. The police investigator also named two others, Mohammed Badawy Al Husseiny and Tan Kim Loong, who he said were persons of interest to Singapore investigators. Mr. Al Husseiny, an American, was chief executive of a company that allegedly had business dealings with 1MDB. Mr. Tan, commonly known as Eric Tan, was an associate of Mr. Low, according to people familiar with the matter.
