An Interpol Red Notice seeking the location and provisional arrest of the financier, better known as Jho Low, remains in effect, the police said. Singapore charged Low in absentia and issued a warrant of arrest in 2016.
Singapore authorities said it is still pursuing Malaysian fugitive Low Taek Jho in connection with a multibillion-dollar scandal related to 1Malaysia Development Bhd.
A deal with the US Justice Department in June to settle civil actions against Low and his family “has no bearing” on Singapore’s criminal probe, the city-state’s police force said in an emailed statement Tuesday.
