Kerr retrieved the gifts — including a $3.8m (£3m) 8.88 carat diamond pendant from New York-based designer Lorraine Schwartz — from a safe-deposit box in Los Angeles, her spokesman said. “From the start of the inquiry, Miranda Kerr cooperated fully and pledged to turn over the gifts of jewellery to the government,” the spokesman told Dow Jones newswires. Kerr was gifted the jewellery in 2014 by Jho Low, a financier at the heart of the corruption scandal that has engulfed the Malaysian government. US authorities have not charged Jho Low, Najib or Aziz in the civil complaint, while Kerr and DiCaprio have not been accused of any crime. 1MDB said on Friday that it had never been contacted in relation to the case.
