1MDB Updates: Jho Low, a Swiss Trial and Testimony in Malaysia

The consequences of Jho Low's colossal fraud continue to be felt on several continents. In Malaysia, the trial of former Malaysian prime minister Najib Razak has entered its fifth year, with new testimony from ex-1MDB lawyer Jasmine Loo. In Switzerland this month, two PetroSaudi execs, Tarik Obaid and Patrick Mahony, have insisted to a judge that their company was not a sham set up to siphon money from the sovereign fund. In the US, former Fugees rapper Pras Michel is appealing his conviction for political conspiracy after doing Jho Low's political bidding in America. This week, on a special edition of Whale Hunting live from Brazen's new London studio, hosts Tom Wright and Bradley Hope share their take on all the latest 1MDB drama. Together, they answer questions submitted by live listeners – including those about Jho Low's potential arrest and where the saga could be headed next.
