Will MACC prosecute ex-Astro CEO, asks Guan Eng

PETALING JAYA: DAP chairman Lim Guan Eng has urged the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) to reveal if former Astro CEO Rohana Rozhan will be prosecuted following indications that she withheld information on the 1MDB scandal.

Speaking to FMT, Lim noted that former Goldman Sachs banker Tim Leissner had testified in court that Rohana blackmailed him.

“And now there are reports that she is agreeing to return US$10 million to the authorities,” he said. “I hope this is not the end of the story.”

There have been reports that Rohana was allegedly in a 10-year-relationship with Leissner, a prosecution witness in the US trial of another former Goldman Sachs banker, Roger Ng.

Leissner had testified that he bought Rohana a US$10 million house in London in 2013 after she threatened to expose his involvement in 1MDB.
