Accepted Answer

Tan Sri Ambrin Buang Ordered the Destruction of Some Original 1MDB Audit Reports

Former Auditor-General Tan Sri Madinah Mohamad testified that Tan Sri Ambrin Buang had ordered the destruction of four out of ten original copies of the 1MDB audit report that were still in the National Audit Department's (NAD) possession. The remaining six copies had already been distributed to NAD's mailing list at the time. Madinah herself later decided not to destroy the original report she received, as it contained material evidence pertaining to 1MDB.
Destruction Order for Undistributed Copies

The directive to destroy specific copies of the 1MDB audit report originated from Tan Sri Ambrin Buang. This order pertained to four of the ten original reports that had not yet been distributed. The intent behind this instruction was to remove these particular copies from the NAD's custody.
Distribution of Remaining Reports

Following the order for the destruction of four copies, the remaining six original reports had already been sent out. These reports were distributed to individuals on the National Audit Department's established mailing list. Therefore, the destruction order specifically targeted the portion of the original reports that had not left the department's possession.
Madinah's Decision to Preserve a Copy

Upon receiving an original copy of the 1MDB audit report, Tan Sri Madinah Mohamad made a conscious decision not to destroy it. She was informed by Nor Salwani Muhammad that this particular copy contained material evidence related to 1MDB. Madinah chose to retain this report for further examination and instruction, rather than proceeding with its destruction.
