KUALA LUMPUR, June 17 — Fugitive businessman Low Taek Jho today denied that the company secretary who worked for the scandal-ridden 1Malaysia Development Berhad’s (1MDB) former subsidiary SRC International Sdn Bhd is his aunt.
Just before 4pm this afternoon, Jho Low’s spokesman via his lead US lawyers issued a statement to deny that SRC International’s former company secretary Goh Gaik Kim was related to his family.
“There is no family relationship between Mr Low or any of his family members with the above mentioned Goh Gaik Kim,” the spokesman said in a brief statement sent out by Australia-based public relations firm Wells Haslem Mayhew Strategic Public Affairs.
Low’s denial also comes hours after local financial paper The Edge FInancial Daily reported Goh Gaik Kim — who is currently with former 1MDB unit TRX City Sdn Bhd as a company secretary — to be his maternal aunt.
