Abstract: 

On August 10, 2017, the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) moved to suspend the civil forfeiture proceedings against the assets acquired by Malaysian financier Low Taek Jho (also known as Jho Low), and others involved with the 1Mayalysia Development Berhad (1MDB) because continuing to litigate these cases may interfere and have adverse effect with the criminal investigation.
