Sarawak Report, a site founded by investigative journalist Clare Rewcastle-Brown that’s been taking fact-finding expose in regard to the 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) fund, has unexpectedly found itself “under attack” in the previous week.

As stated by the site, it’s lately been subjected to numerous competitive efforts to drive it to remove pictures of specific people which it’d linked to alleged mistreatment of 1MDB funds as corroborative evidence.

“These hackers took care to disguise their IP address after which alter it in a play to conceal their place.”

The story the hackers needed removed from the site was about the supposedly double life of the Aabar Fund chairman of Abu Dhabi, Khadem al-Qubaisi.

On the one hand, he was depicted as a sober civil servant working for the state of the sovereign fund of Abu Dhabi.

But in marked comparison, Sarawak Report released pictures of him as a party-loving figure.

Sarawak Report said it’s concurrently been faced with another type of assault, which was likewise directed at eliminating specific pictures from its website.

The web site said for a number of days currently a nonexistent celeb images service has pestered its internet server organization to eliminate images revealing Low cavorting with Paris Hilton in the south of France.

“So far, the nonexistent image service hasn’t supplied evidence of the copyright, nor has it shown any interest in being paid for the images. On the contrary, it’s participated in competitive backdoor approaches to get our website and other websites to take down the images by endangering copyright actions against our server businesses,” Sarawak Report said.
