asked a US judge to delay the start of a 10-year prison sentence for his role in the global 1MDB fraud, saying he needs three months to allow for his wife and young daughter to arrive in New York from Malaysia.
Agnifilo said Ng hasn’t seen his daughter, who is now 10, for more than four years - since he was arrested in Malaysia in 2018. Ng, who agreed to be extradited to the US to face trial in New York in early 2019, also faces prosecution in Malaysia once he’s released, Agnifilo has said. The lawyer argued his client has been free on house arrest and electronic monitoring since a federal magistrate in Brooklyn agreed to release him on $20 million bail in May 2019, and has never violated conditions of his release. Agnifilo said prosecutors objected to the delay.
