PETALING JAYA: The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission has issued an order to freeze the assets and bank accounts of former Astro Malaysia Holdings Bhd chief executive Rohana Rozhan following revelations related to 1MDB.
MACC sources were quoted by Astro Awani as saying that the move followed an investigation into the ownership of a house which was allegedly bought using 1MDB money.
He said Rohana was prohibited from doing any transaction involving her bank account in the United Kingdom.
The assets were frozen under the anti-money laundering law after MACC began an investigation into the allegations by former Goldman Sachs banker Tim Leissner who testified in a US court that she had demanded a house worth US$10 million in London.
