1mdb Probing Deloitte S Testimony To Pac
The current administration of 1MDB is probing statements made by Deloitte Malaysia's former managing partner Tan Theng Hooi to the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) in 2016
This was revealed by the Finance Ministry in a parliamentary written reply to Lim Lip Eng (Harapan-Kepong), who accused Tan of lying to the PAC in June that year. Tan was among seven individuals who signed off 1MDB's financial statements for the year 2014
In July 2016, Deloitte resigned as 1MDB's auditors, and said that its audits for the company in 2013 and 2014 could no longer be relied upon
This occurred soon after the US Department of Justice (DOJ) filed a suit to seize assets which were allegedly acquired using funds misappropriated from 1MDB
Deloitte had said that information arising from the DOJ suit would have impacted 1MDB's financial statements had it been known earlier
'Take action against Deloitte'Lim (photo) later told reporters that the Malaysian Institute of Accountants (MIA) should take action against Tan and Deloitte for defending the firm's audit opinion on 1MDB when testifying before the PAC
"We all know now that these defences were false and lies. We call upon MIA to take action against Tan, who came and lied to the PAC and defended the firm's audit opinion on 1MDB before," he said
In 2015, then-Petaling Jaya Utara MP Tony Pua had lodged a report with the MIA against Deloitte for allegedly failing to raise alarms on 1MDB's debt levels. It remains unknown if any action was taken against the firm, however. 1MDB has gone through several prominent audit firms in its short history. Its predecessor, Terengganu Investment Authority, had engaged Ernst & Young in 2009 before they were replaced by KPMG in 2010
Deloitte was appointed by 1MDB in 2013 but resigned in 2016. 1MDB went on without an auditor until May this year, when Parker Randall was brought in. - Mkini
