香港警方調查據稱與納吉布相關存款

Hong Kong police are investigating a series of deposits allegedly linked to Malaysian prime minister Najib Razak, as a scandal over claims of misappropriation from a state development fund continues to spread.

香港警方正在調查一系列據稱與馬來西亞總理納吉布拉扎克(Najib Razak)有牽連的存款。納吉布被指從國家發展基金挪用資金的醜聞正在繼續發酵。

The probe in the Chinese territory is another blow to Mr Najib. Transactions allegedly linked to the 1Malaysia Development Berhad fund, whose advisory board he chairs, are also the subject of investigation by Swiss prosecutors.

香港這個中國特別行政區展開的調查，是對納吉布的又一個打擊。瑞士檢察機關也在調查據稱與“1MDB”(1Malaysia Development Berhad)基金有關的交易，納吉布是該基金顧問委員會主席。

A Malaysian government spokesman denounced the Hong Kong allegations as “baseless and politically motivated lies”. It said the premier was looking at legal options to stop those with “malicious intent” to ”smear and discredit” him.

馬來西亞政府的一名發言人譴責香港的指控“毫無根據，是具有政治動機的謊言”。馬來西亞政府稱，總理正在尋找法律途徑，以阻止那些對他“惡意誹謗和抹黑”的人。

Mr Najib’s opponents claim he used an array of agencies, companies and banks linked to 1MDB to move more than $675m into his own bank account. He denies the 1MDB link and says he has done nothing wrong, as the funds were from an unnamed Middle Eastern donor and not for his personal gain.

納吉布的對手們稱，他利用一連串與1MDB關聯的代理機構、公司和銀行，將超過6.75億美元轉移到他本人的銀行賬戶。他否認與1MDB有財務瓜葛，稱自己沒有不當行爲，賬戶上的資金來自一位不願透露姓名的中東捐助者，而且不是用來爲他自己謀取私利的。

Hong Kong police are investigating bank deposits of more than $250m allegedly made at a Credit Suisse branch in the city. Credit Suisse declined to comment. The probe was sparked by a report to authorities by Khairuddin Abu Hassan, a critic of 1MDB and a member of Mr Najib’s ruling United Malays National Organisation until he was sacked this year, ostensibly as he was bankrupt.

香港警方正在調查據稱在瑞信(Credit Suisse)香港分行存入的超過2.5億美元存款。瑞信拒絕置評。這項調查是由一份提交給官方的報告引發的，報告作者是凱魯丁阿布哈桑(Khairuddin Abu Hassan)，他是1MDB的批評者，並曾經是納吉布所在的執政黨——馬來民族統一機構（United Malays National Organisation，中文簡稱“巫統”）黨員，直至今年被開除，開除的表面原因是他陷入破產。

Mr Khairuddin alleges the deposits were made via four companies linked to Mr Najib: Alliance Assets International, Cityfield Enterprises, Bartingale International and Wonder Quest Investment.

凱魯丁稱，上述存款是由四家與納吉布關聯的公司存入的，這些公司是：Alliance Assets International、Cityfield Enterprises、Bartingale International 以及 Wonder Quest Investment。

“These companies are highly questionable,” he wrote on his Facebook page. “I have asked the police in Hong Kong to make a detailed and comprehensive investigation of the companies’ financial resources and transactions.”

“這些公司是很成問題的，”他在自己的Facebook頁面上寫道。 “我已請求香港警方對這些公司的財務資源和交易展開全面詳盡的調查。”

Hong Kong police confirmed they had received the request and that investigations were under way. The companies could not be reached for comment.

香港警方證實收到了請求，並稱調查正在進行。記者聯繫不上上述公司請其置評。

Mr Khairuddin said he had lost faith in probes by authorities in Malaysia. “I wanted police from another country to investigate comprehensively and transparently and without any influence from the prime minister of Malaysia,” he wrote. “ I no longer have trust or confidence in the police, the [central bank] and the office of the attorney-general.”

凱魯丁表示，他對馬來西亞當局的調查已經失去了信心。 “我希望另一個國家的警方進行全面和透明的調查，不受馬來西亞總理的任何影響，”他寫道。“我對警察、央行和總檢察長辦公室不再信任或抱有信心。”

Mr Najib’s side accused Mr Khairuddin of lodging ”false and politically motivated police reports”.

納吉布一方指責凱魯丁提交“虛假和出於政治動機的報案報告”。
