Singapore hasn’t received any formal request from Malaysia to return financier Low Taek Jho’s private jet, part of the billions of dollars in assets that Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad is seeking to claw back.

“An aircraft that is the subject of ongoing 1MDB-related investigations is parked at Seletar Airport,” a representative for Singapore’s police said Tuesday in response to queries. “Singapore has not received any formal request from the Malaysian authorities seeking the return of the aircraft.”
