Jho Low, wanted in connection with $4.5bn theft, tried to buy off-the-shelf citizenship from Cyprus, report states
A Malaysian fugitive wanted in connection with one of the biggest frauds in history attempted to buy a “golden passport” that would have granted him unrestricted access to the EU, according to a report.
Jho Low, who is sought by law enforcement for his alleged role in the theft of more than $4.5bn (£3.3bn) from the government and people of Malaysia, sought the help of a passport brokerage called Henley & Partners to help him buy off-the-shelf citizenship from Cyprus, the report states.
