The Malaysian government has charged 17 current and former Goldman Sachs executives as part of its sweeping probe into the bank’s alleged involvement in a multibillion-dollar financial scandal at 1MDB, the country’s state investment fund.

In a filing on August 9, Tommy Thomas, Malaysia’s attorney general, said he was seeking custodial sentences and fines against several senior figures at the bank’s European and Asian businesses.
