KUALA LUMPUR: Former Petrosaudi International employee Xavier Andre Justo has confirmed meeting with Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad today. He posted a picture of him and Dr Mahathir on his Facebook account, saying it was a privilege to meet the new Malaysian leader. When contacted via Facebook Messenger, Justo confirmed the picture was taken at the Prime Minister's private residence in Seri Kembangan. Justo, a Swiss national, was sentenced to three years’ jail on Aug 17 after he pleaded guilty to blackmailing his former employer, PetroSaudi International. However, in Dec 2016, Justo was among thousands of foreign prisoners who was granted a royal pardon by Thailand’s king, King Maha Vajiralongkorn Bodindradeva-rangkun.
