KUALA LUMPUR (Oct 26): Police have identified another individual abroad who has been linked with 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) assets worth millions of ringgit.

Bukit Aman Commercial CID director Datuk Seri Ramli Mohamed Yoosuf said this was a positive discovery following the investigation carried out on former Goldman Sachs banker Roger Ng in a bid to secure the return of 1MDB assets locally and overseas.

He said the identity of the individual cannot be revealed as it could jeopardise investigations into the case.

“The tracking of assets need not necessary involve Roger Ng and on the other hand it was found that another individual has been identified as owning 1MDB funds,” he said in a special media conference on Thursday.

Elaborating further, Ramli said the investigation into Ng is still ongoing with a focus on recovering 1MDB assets.
