Malaysia: The World's Biggest Heist



101 East investigates Malaysia's 1MDB scandal and speaks with the accidental hero who blew the whistle.


It's been branded the world's biggest heist - between 2009 and 2014 at least $4.5bn was allegedly stolen from Malaysia's sovereign wealth fund, 1MDB.
At the centre of the scandal are the former Prime Minister Najib Razak and the now-fugitive Malaysian financier and alleged mastermind of the scam, Jho Low.
Ousted from power last year, Najib now faces almost 40 criminal charges and Jho Low is wanted in Malaysia, Singapore and the United States.
