A spokesperson for Penang-born billionaire Low Taek Jho, better known as Jho Low, dismissed claims that the businessman was untraceable.

This is with regard to Low being sought by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) in its investigation into SRC International Sdn Bhd.

In a one-paragraph statement to Bernama , the spokesperson said: "In August 2015, the MACC sought Low's help. Low's representatives immediately contacted the MACC and continue to be in contact."

Yesterday, the Home Ministry said the authorities did not seek Interpol's help to find Jho Low as the police was not investigating the billionaire.

The ministry was responding to a question about the whereabouts of Jho Low and four other individuals in a written reply to a question by PKR's Kelana Jaya MP Wong Chen.

The other four individuals were former 1MDB executive directors Casey Tang Keng Chee and Jasmine Loo Ai Swan SRC International managing director Nik Faisal Ariff Kamil and director Suboh Md Yassin.

Nik Faisal, Suboh and Low are sought by the MACC to assist in investigations related to SRC International, while Tang and Loo are sought by Bank Negara Malaysia to facilitate investigations under the Exchange Control Act 1953 to assist in investigations related to 1MDB.
