Now that Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak has been cleared of graft accusations following the completion of a review by the country's Attorney-General, his most prolific critic Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad has fired new salvos in a blogpost.
Najib has for months fended off accusations that the huge payment made into his personal bank accounts in 2013 was siphoned off from a now-struggling state-owned company that he had launched.
Attorney-General Mohamed Apandi Ali said a review of evidence compiled by the country's anti-graft agency showed that the money was a "personal donation from the Saudi royal family", but gave no further details. Najib was also noted to have returned the RM2.03 billion back to the Saudi Royal family.
