KUALA LUMPUR (Feb 23): National Audit Department (NAD) director Datuk Nor Salwani Muhammad has denied that she was conferred a datukship solely because of her role in exposing the alleged tampering of the original audit report of the scandal-hit 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB).
Testifying in the 1MDB audit report tampering trial at the High Court, Nor Salwani said she was nominated for a royal award even before her earlier testimony at this trial in November 2019. The award was not just to appreciate me for keeping the evidence. I was nominated by NAD for the Panglima Mahkota Wilayah (which carries the title Datuk) because I have served in the Ministry of Federal Territories and NAD for almost 30 years, she said.
