Rosmah trial: Defence set to cross-examine eight prosecution witness Razak Othman
DAY 11| Former prime minister Najib Abdul Razak’s wife, Rosmah Mansor, will today be facing the 11th day of her corruption trial at the Kuala Lumpur High Court.
She is facing three charges pertaining to the alleged misappropriation of funds for the supply and installation of solar energy at 369 rural schools in Sarawak for the Education Ministry.
The project was valued at RM1.25 billion, and awarded to Jepak Holdings Sdn Bhd through direct negotiation.
Malaysiakini brings you live reports of the proceedings.
When the trial last adjourned on Feb 20, businessperson Razak Othman, who was the eight prosecution witness, testified that he was a business partner of Jepak Holdings' managing director Saidi Abang Samsudin, sharing a business together under a company named Trace Tag Asia Sdn Bhd.
Razak said that sometime in December 2016, he went to Maybank Jalan Tuanku Abdul Rahman in Kuala Lumpur to cash a cheque of RM30,000 which Saidi had given the company to purchase a lorry for their business.
He told the court that he helped Saidi pack RM5 million in cash into the two bags that Saidi purchased earlier. The cash, in RM100 denomination, were divided equally into the two bags.
They then took the cash to a building near Pavilion shopping complex and the cash was placed in a vehicle described as either a Toyota Alphard or Vellfire.
After that, they left the building and returned to the Maybank branch, where Razak took his car and returned home.
The previous session ended early in order for the defence to prepare for the cross-examination of Razak.
Proceedings are expected to resume today as the defence cross-examines Razak. - Mkini
