The questioning began at 10.30am and ended at 1pm.
"Shahrol's cooperation was satisfactory, and he answered all questions aimed at him.
"All PAC members also got a chance to ask questions that were very satisfying on all aspects of 1MDB's administration," PAC chief Hasan Arifin said in a statement today.
