Gabungan Ketua Cawangan Umno (GKCM) today submitted a memorandum to the Saudi Arabia embassy in Kuala Lumpur demanding answers over the RM2.6 billion "donation" Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak had received.

The memorandum contained 10 questions which GKCM wanted Saudi Arabia to answer as Najib claimed the massive donation was from the country.

"We submitted a memorandum to a representative of the Saudi ambassador to Malaysia at about 12 noon today on the RM2.6 billion issue.

"GKCM outlined 10 questions that require official explanation from the Saudi government so that questions surrounding the RM2.6 billion can be answered," said GKCM president Kamarulazman Habibur Rahman.

GKCM is a grouping of Umno branch leaders who have turned on Najib over the RM2.6 billion scandal.

Kamarulazman said answers were needed to help Malaysia restore its tarnished reputation.

The 10 questions submitted to the Saudi representative are:

  • Who gave the money?

When did the money enter into Najib's bank accounts?

Why was the money given?

    • What kind of donation was it?

    • Was it for Najib's personal use?

    • Was the money really returned as claimed?

    • Why the uncertainty and doubt over the money?

    • Who was the Saudi prince said to be the donor?

    • What is the relationship between the Saudi prince and Najib?

  • Where are there so many contradictory explanations about the money?

    • Kamarulazman said the Saudi ambassador's representative was positive about their visit and promised to respond to the questions.

    He said GKCM had submitted the memorandum as it had no confidence in the explanations made by attorney-general Mohamed Apandi Ali on the matter.

    Najib has denied any wrongdoing and Apandi earlier this month also cleared the prime minister of any offences.

    However, the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) is appealing Apandi's decision not to prosecute.
