GENTING HIGHLANDS: The Royal Malaysia Police ( PDRM) have held a meeting with the authoritie­s in China in the effort to detect businessma­n Low Taek Jho – or Jho Low, said InspectorG­eneral of Police ( IGP) Tan Sri Mohamad Fuzi Harun.

Without divulging details on the meeting, Mohamad Fuzi said currently, Jho Low has not been found and efforts to detect him are still underway.

“The police are also communicat­ing with Interpol and the status is the same,” he said after attending a Royal Malaysian Customs Department-PDRM highlevel meeting here yesterday.

Last Thursday, Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad said the government would continue its effort to find the businessma­n, although it had been difficult.

Jho Low, who was identified by investigat­ors from Malaysia and the United States as the main character in the multibilli­on 1Malaysia Developmen­t Bhd (1MDB) scandal, is believed to have escaped from detention in Hong Kong to an island near Macau.
