2pm - The proceeding is adjourned for the day, and will resume tomorrow morning
Lawyer: Mahdzir didn't discuss with cabinet because he was corrupt1.30pm - Lead defence counsel Jagjit Singh once again accuses prosecution witness Mahdzir Khalid, who is a former education minister, of being corrupt
At this juncture, he asks Mahdzir if he had ever taken the hybrid solar project matter to the cabinet for discussion, as the then prime minister Najib Abdul Razak still wanted him to issue a Letter of Award to Jepak Holdings
The court heard earlier that Mahdzir was against this, but testified that he did it anyway because of Najib's minute ordering him to do so in November 2016
Mahdzir then replies in the negative, saying that there was no need to bring the matter to the cabinet
Hearing this, Jagjit then suggests to Mahdzir that he did not do so because he was embarrassed to bring such a matter to the cabinet
Jagjit: When you told the Prime Minister, and the PM minuted to you like that, did you as a minister brought this matter to the cabinet
Mahdzir: No I did not. There was no need to bring it to the cabinet
Jagjit: Did you or did you not bring it to the cabinet
Mahdzir: No, I did not
Jagjit: You said there was no need to, because you had taken a bribe. That was why there was no need to do that. You will be embarrassed if you take this to the cabinet
Mahdzir: I disagree
Defence, Mahdzir have lengthy exchanges over 'following instructions'1.20pm - The proceeding sees lead defence counsel Jagjit Singh and prosecution witness Mahdzir Khalid having lengthy exchanges over the latter's testimony, with Mahdzir saying he was only following orders from the then prime minister Najib Abdul Razak when he issued a Letter of Award to Jepak Holdings in 2016
This comes as Jagjit gives a series of put questions to Mahdzir around the issue of whether the former education minister should effect the order he received from Najib without following existing government rules and procedures
As Mahdzir keeps answering that he was only "following orders", Jagjit continues to press him over the procedural requirement
Jagjit: Although he (Najib) has the right to issue the letter, his rights is subjected to rules
Mahdzir: PM gave me the order
Jagjit: And we must follow both order and the rules
Mahdzir: We just follow the PM's order
Jagjit: (Follow order) and also must follow procedures and rules. Do you agree or disagree
Mahdzir: This letter is an order
The exchanges continue for about 10 minutes, with another defence counsel Akberdin Abdul Kader (above) also having to interfere and attempt to clarify Jagjit's question to Mahdzir
Akberdin tells Mahdzir that while orders need to be followed, there are also rules like the Treasury circulars that must be abided to in the process
Mahdzir then agrees to this
Mahdzir is implicating Rosmah to absolve himself, alleges defence lawyer1pm - Defence lawyer Jagjit Singh accuses former education minister Mahdzir Khalid of making up stories when he implicated Rosmah Mansor in his testimony in the hybrid solar corruption trial
The defence counsel makes the suggestion while cross-examining Mahdzir, telling the politician that he was actually trying to deflect from being held responsible
Mahdzir, however, denies the allegation
Jagjit: I put it to you that you implicated Datin Seri Rosmah's name in order to deflect (the matter)
Mahdzir: I disagree
Jagjit: I put it to you that you attempt to deflect the allegation against you, and you implicated Datin Seri Rosmah as mentioned in your evidence in Paragraph 91 (of your witness statement)Mahdzir: I disagree
In his witness statement, Mahdzir alleged that he was pressured into issuing a Letter of Award for the project to Jepak Holdings by "Team Saidi", referring to Jepak managing director Saidi Abang Samsudin
He named Rosmah as among those in the team. The others he named were Rosmah's aide Rizal Mansor, and Pekan Umno division secretary Aazmey Abu Talib
11.45am - Hearing resumes after short break
11.20am - The court takes a short break
Defence wants Mahdzir to bring details of company that owns his house10.50am - Rosmah Mansor's lawyer Jagjit Singh (below) asks former education minister Mahdzir Khalid, who is testifying against his client, to bring details on his house ownership to court tomorrow
This comes as Mahdzir says that he does not remember the name of the company
It is understood that a house used by Mahdzir in Country Height is registered to a company
Jagjit also asks the politician to bring the details of the company, including its shareholders and directors
Rosmah’s lawyer says Mahdzir was ‘a corrupt minister'10.45am - Rosmah Mansor's lawyer Jagjit Singh accuses former education minister Mahdzir Khalid of being a corrupt minister
The defence counsel makes the accusation when he is cross-examining the former education minister, particularly on the latter's testimony implicating Rosmah in the hybrid solar project corruption
Jagjit firstly asks Mahdzir why he did not check with Rosmah directly when the latter’s then aide Rizal Mansor said he was representing the accused in dealings related to the solar project
Mahdzir says that he believed Rizal as the latter had represented to him that he (Rizal) was speaking on behalf of Rosmah
Jagjit: There is no excuse (not to contact Rosmah directly)
Mahdzir: Rizal was the one who told me (that he was representing Rosmah)
Jagjit: That is only an excuse, Datuk Seri. You are a corrupt minister. You asked for millions of ringgit..
Mahdzir: I disagree
Lawyer suggests Mahdzir agreed to project in exchange for RM60m10.20am - The cross-examination on former education minister Mahdzir Khalid resumes with defence lawyer Jagjit Singh pressing the politician with questions, where he suggested that Mahdzir was corrupt
Among the claims Jagjit makes is that Mahdzir had allegedly agreed to award Jepak Holdings the project to supply hybrid solar system to 369 schools in Sarawak in exchange for kickbacks totalling RM60 million
He put it to Mahdzir that the latter had purportedly minuted his agreement to the project after Jepak Holdings managing director Saidi Abang Samsudin agreed to pay Mahdzir RM1 million a month for five years
Mahdzir, however, denies all the accusations put forward by Jagjit
10.10am - The proceeding begins with former education minister Mahdzir Khalid taking his oath and ready to be cross-examined by defence lawyer Jagjit Singh
10am - Wife of former prime minister Najib Abdul Razak, Rosmah Mansor enters the accused dock while waiting for the trial to begin
Also seen in the courtroom is former education minister Mahdzir Khalid, who is set to continue giving his testimony as a prosecution witness
The corruption trial against Rosmah Mansor, the wife of former prime minister Najib Abdul Razak, is expected to continue for its fourth day today with her defence lawyers resuming their cross-examination on former education minister Mahdzir Khalid (below)
Mahdzir, who is testifying as the fifth prosecution witness, has been giving his testimony against Rosmah since the second day of the hearing on Thursday
He has since made several explosive revelations on how the contract to supply hybrid solar system to 369 schools in Sarawak, worth RM1.25 billion, had ended up in the hands of Jepak Holdings Sdn Bhd which had no prior experience in the business of solar power system
During yesterday's proceedings, Mahdzir testified in court that he had complained to Najib in 2016 of the behaviour of two individuals linked to Jepak who were lobbying for the project, where they had humiliated him but Najib only kept silent
The court also heard from Rosmah's lawyer Jagjit Singh suggesting that Mahdzir had allegedly received RM50,000 from Jepak Holdings' managing director Saidi Abang Samsudin in 2015, but this was denied by the witness
Jagjit later also claimed that Pekan Umno division secretary Ahmad Aazmey Abu Talib had received some RM1.5 million from Saidi for helping the company to get the contract
The lawyer said this when he was putting a question to Mahdzir, asking him if he had any knowledge of the alleged payment
Mahdzir, while he agreed that Jepak had gotten the project with Aazmey's assistance, told the court that he has no knowledge about the alleged money paid by Saidi to Aazmey. - Mkini
