Lying Najib Should Check His Mental Health Says Justo

Xavier Andre Justo has questioned Najib Razak’s mental health after the former prime minister said the Swiss national had been sacked by PetroSaudi International and had then stolen a database of emails.PETALING JAYA: A whistleblower who grabbed headlines after leaking 1MDB-related documents has hit out at Najib Razak for claiming that he had been sacked by PetroSaudi International.
Accusing Najib of writing lies, Xavier Andre Justo said he had resigned from the oil and gas company.
In a Facebook post, the Swiss national offered two reasons why the former prime minister ‘kept lying’.
The first reason, Justo claimed, was that by repeating the lies, Najib hoped these would be taken as the truth, and the second was that Najib’s memory could be failing him with age.
“I do think that a visit to a doctor for a thorough check of your mental health is a very important option,” he wrote.
Justo also uploaded a picture of his letter of resignation with the hope that it would stop Najib from claiming that ‘I was fired’.
He went on to say that he had met UK-based Indian businessman Kamal Siddiqi after the 2018 general election and not before as claimed by Najib.
Earlier today, Najib had claimed that Justo was fired from PetroSaudi – which went into a joint venture with 1MDB – for ‘personal reasons’.
Najib claimed that unhappy at being let go, Justo had stolen a database of emails belonging to PetroSaudi.
The Pekan MP said this when responding to claims by the Sarawak Report’s Clare Rewcastle-Brown that he had had Justo jailed in Thailand.
Justo came into the limelight after his arrest in 2015 for leaking PetroSaudi documents related to its joint venture with 1MDB. This eventually formed the basis of a money-laundering investigation into the state investment fund.
However, it also landed him in a Thai jail for 18 months for allegedly demanding payment in exchange for not disclosing confidential information. - FMT
