1MDB: Arul Kanda rebuts claims of submitting false bank statement
1MDB CEO Arul Kanda Kandasamy today rebutted claims that he had submitted a false bank statement to Bank Negara Malaysia.
1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) Chief Executive Officer Arul Kanda Kandasamy today rebutted claims that he had submitted a false bank statement to Bank Negara Malaysia.
"We note with dismay that an online blog, Sarawak Report, continues to carry false information and direct unfounded allegations at 1MDB.
In a recent post, the blog stated that Arul Kandasamy had provided a false bank statement to Bank Negara to imply that 1MDB had cash in a BSI account in Singapore.
"This is a lie. I have never provided any such statement to BNM.
"To state otherwise is blatantly false and incorrect, as are any allegations that are based on this premise, he said in a statement.
He also said IMDB has been extending its full cooperation to the review being conducted by the Auditor-General’s office and 'looked forward to appearing before the Public Accounts Committee'.
"These enquiries, which are transparent and bipartisan, should answer the many questions that have been asked of the company.
"As such, we request all parties to await the outcome of these independent enquiries and refrain from making irresponsible and unfounded allegations in the meantime," he reiterated.
