KUALA LUMPUR - Fugitive Malaysian financier Low Taek Jho has said he only acted as an intermediary for deals involving 1MDB, denying in an interview published on Monday that he had set the stage for the theft of billions of dollars from the Malaysian state fund.
Low, or Jho Low as he is popularly known, has consistently denied wrongdoing and says the charges against him are politically motivated. Low declined to divulge his current location but confirmed he was offered asylum in August last year. He did not name the country offering asylum.
