Cheras Umno chief Syed Ali Alhabshee is tired of waiting for investigators to haul up businessman Jho Low in the probe on 1Malaysia Development Bhd’s finances.

He said Low's name "keeps popping up" when it comes to allegations of misappropriation of funds yet there has been little news on the progress of investigations and whether Low is under the microscope.

"We (have been) waiting from early March, and there is not even a whimper on the investigations by the task force, which was set up to investigate 1MDB," he said on the division's official blog.

"The task force, which is trailing at a snail's pace, has not called (Low) in for questioning. And we are clueless as to whether they ever will," he vented.

He said although Low keeps denying involvement in 1MDB, there are now exposes alleging that billions of ringgit originating from 1MDB found their way into bank accounts controlled by Low.

Whistleblower website Sarawak Report among others published leaked emails between 1MDB, Saudi Arabian PetroSaudi International, Low's associates and the businessman himself.

The emails showed that 1MDB was instructed by PetroSaudi to bank in US$700 million (RM2.5 billion) into an account belonging to a firm controlled by Low.

In response, Low decried he was caught in political crossfire, but did not deny the veracity of the leaked emails.

PetroSaudi also lodged a report claiming their database was hacked, but said all funds 1MDB invested into the now defunct 2009 1MDB-PetroSaudi joint venture went to PetroSaudi firms.

This month, Sarawak Report cited leaked investigation findings from Singapore, showing that more funds originating from 1MDB made it to Low.

When contacted, the Monetary Authority of Singapore said it is assisting Malaysia in its probe on 1MDB but cannot comment on specific cases and ongoing investigations.
