The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission said its investigations found that 2.6 billion ringgit ($675 million) that allegedly ended up in Prime Minister Najib Razak’s personal accounts were donations and not from a debt-ridden state investment company.

The agency has completed its probe of the premier’s accounts and sent the results to the attorney general, it said in an e-mailed statement Monday. The probe was done in a free, transparent and professional manner, it said, without indicating where the donations came from or why millions of dollars in such funds would be deposited in Najib’s personal bank accounts.
