Fugitive Jho Low reportedly transferred US$406,000 to Kim Kardashian and her former partner Kris Humphries, while Pharrell Williams received US$2,025,000.

According to financial fraud investigator Richard Templeman, Low misappropriated US$1.03 billion from 1MDB's JV with PetroSaudi Limited and transferred the funds to Good Star.

"These were used for the personal benefit of the co-conspirators and their associates."

Shein shoes were found to have phthalate levels far exceeding legal limits, with one pair 229 times over.

“Phthalate-based plasticisers can reduce sperm count, cause infertility and premature birth,” says Seoul’s environmental health team.

"One chemical is listed as a human carcinogen by the International Cancer Institute, therefore long-term contact with it should be avoided," they add.

Formaldehyde, a chemical often found in home building products, was detected in Shein’s caps at twice the permitted level.
