KUALA LUMPUR, May 15 — Investigations are ongoing into allegations that fugitive businessman Low Taek Jho, better known as Jho Low, attended secret meetings in Kuala Lumpur last year, Inspector-General of Police Datuk Seri Mohd Khalid Ismail said today.
He said the investigations are strictly in accordance with existing legal procedures.
“This is a claim, seven years ago, I was not even appointed at that time.
“Therefore, investigations are carried out from time to time in accordance with the legal process permitted under the law,” he told reporters here.
Mohd Khalid said authorities remain bound by the law and will continue cooperating with relevant parties to ensure the matter is fully and properly investigated.
He did not provide further details, saying the case is still under investigation.
On Wednesday, news portal Sarawak Report alleged that Low had attended secret meetings in the Malaysian capital city at the end of 2025 as part of a Chinese delegation, purportedly linked to efforts to resolve outstanding 1MDB-related issues between China and Malaysia
The talks were also said to involve claims that China may have played a role in helping cover up matters linked to former Malaysian prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak, who is now serving a six-year prison sentence after being convicted of money laundering and power abuses in SRC International Sdn Bhd, a former unit of sovereign investment firm 1MDB Berhad.
Low is widely reported to have fled Malaysia in 2015, shortly after the 1MDB scandal intensified.
