The commission’s chief Azam Baki confirmed the recovery of the US$10 million in a statement on Friday.
Malaysia’s anti-graft agency said Rohana Rozhan, the former chief executive officer of Astro Malaysia Holdings Bhd., had returned US$10 million related to the troubled state fund 1MDB.
Money and assets in that amount were returned to the government last year after the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission completed an investigation into Rozana’s alleged involvement in funds embezzled from 1MDB, according to a person familiar with the matter.
