Courts allow Equanimity sale

The Kuala Lumpur High Court granted the request of 1MDB and the government for the superyacht Equanimity to be sold, while the court decides who will keep the proceeds.

Low Taek Jho described this development as a "stunt," and accused the Malaysian government of initiating a fire sale to avoid paying for the yacht's upkeep.
