Second Finance Minister Ahmad Husni Hanadzlah today refused to comment on funds from SRC International Sdn Bhd that were transferred into Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak’s personal bank accounts.

“That one is under investigation, (therefore) we don't make any statement,” Husni told reporters after witnessing the signing of an agreement between the Accountant-General’s Department and universities in Putrajaya today.

Attorney-general Mohamed Apandi Ali has cleared Najib of any wrongdoing in relation to the RM2.6 billion political donation and RM42 million from SRC International that were transferred into Najib's personal bank accounts.

Apandi also said that the prime minister had “no knowledge” that funds from SRC International were transferred into his bank accounts.

He has ordered MACC to close the investigations.

'Saudi royal family's donation'

The prime minister, Apandi explained, was of the belief that the payments made by him came from the Saudi royal family's RM2.6 billion political donation.

“There is no evidence to show the prime minister gave any approval for the transfer of monies from the account of SRC International into his personal accounts," Apandi had said.

A sum of RM50 million was purportedly transferred from the Finance Ministry-owned firm to its subsidiary, Gandingan Mentari, which in turn channelled the sum to another subsidiary, Ihsan Perdana.

From this, RM42 million was transferred to the prime minister's accounts in late 2014 and early 2015.

Najib has repeatedly denied abusing public funds for personal gain, and accused those behind the allegations of conspiring to topple him.
