PARLIAMENT Interpol Malaysia is not tracking Penang-born billionaire Jho Low and four others because the police are not investigating the five, said Deputy Prime Minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.

"Interpol Malaysia cannot detect and determine their whereabouts at present because the police are not investigating them.

“Furthermore, (the police) did not receive any application from any party to request help from Interpol to detect them," Zahid ( photo ) stated in a parliamentary written reply to Wong Chen (PKR-Kelana Jaya), who asked for the whereabouts of the five.

The other four are the managing director of 1MDB's former subsidiary SRC International Sdn Bhd Nik Faisal Ariff Kamil, Deutsche Bank country manager Yusof Annuar Yaacob, Casey Tang of 1MDB's precursor Terengganu Investment Authority's (TIA) and a former executive director at UBG, Jasmine Loo.

Both Tang and Loo were sought by Bank Negara Malaysia back in July.

Tang was one of the pioneers of Terengganu Investment Authority (TIA), which later became 1MDB.

He was reported to be involved in 1MDB's plan to subscribe to US$500 million of murabaha notes in the 1MDB-PetroSaudi International joint venture.

Meanwhile, Loo, a lawyer by training, took over Tang's position after the latter's three-year contract ended in March 2011.

Prior to that, she was the executive director at UBG, a company formerly owned by Low.

Nik Faisal, who Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak said was to be interviewed by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC), is still missing, together with colleague, Suboh Md Yassin.

Meanwhile, Yusof previously served as Goldman Sachs Group Inc’s Malaysia chairman for corporate finance between 2010 and 2014.

Under his tenure, Goldman Sachs had advised 1MDB on three acquisitions and arranged the sale of US$6.5 billion in bonds, making a whopping US$600 million in fees.

It was reported that the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and the Justice Department of the United States are looking at the role of Goldman Sachs in a series of transactions by 1MDB.

This reply from Zahid comes despite the Attorney-General Mohamed Apandi Ali declaring that MACC has recorded statements from SRC International bosses.

MACC is probing a huge fund of SRC International which ultimately ended up in Najib's private account.

Multimillion dollar party bash

It was also reported by whistleblower Sarawak Report that Low has brought his yacht to the harbour of Incheon, South Korea, for a multimillion dollar party bash.

A sum of US$700 million was reportedly taken out from the joint venture of 1MDB-PetroSaudi into Good Star which allegedly owned by Low, who is a close friend of Najib's family.

US-based Wall Street Journal reported on July 10 that Malaysian authorities were informed about the US$500 million (RM1.89 billion) deposited into Low's private accounts as part of their investigation into the alleged misappropriation of 1MDB's funds.

This follows reports on July 2, based on leaked government investigation papers, that US$700 million (RM2.6 billion) in state funds were deposited into the private bank accounts of Najib at AmBank.

The Public Accounts Committee (PAC) once announced that it summoned Low to testify on Sept 8.

However, PAC's new chief Hasan Arifin said there was no urgency to call Low.
