The High Court has fixed May 12 for mention of Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor's corruption trial before a date is fixed for decision in the case where she is accused of soliciting and receiving bribes in connection with the RM1.25 billion project to supply solar energy to rural schools in Sarawak. - NSTP/ HAIRUL ANUAR RAHIMKUALA LUMPUR: The High Court has fixed May 12 for mention of Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor's corruption trial before a date is fixed for decision in the case where she is accused of soliciting and receiving bribes in connection with the RM1.25 billion project to supply solar energy to rural schools in Sarawak.
High Court Judge Mohamed Zaini Mazlan has ordered both sides to file their submissions by that day, following which they would have a chance to make a clarification on their submissions if needed.
He would then go on to fix another date to deliver his decision on whether Rosmah is guilty or should be allowed to walk free.
The court was supposed to hear oral submissions from both sides today but this did not happen after the prosecution applied for an adjournment as they needed more time to reply to Rosmah's 376 pages of written submissions.
Among other things, her lawyers have argued that Rosmah was entitled to an acquittal as her defence was not one of a bare denial but one with merit.
Her lawyers, Datuk Jagjit Singh and Datuk Akberdin Abdul Kader argued that their client had successfully cast reasonable doubt in the prosecution's case by giving rational explanation on what had transpired in the case against her.
A total of 23 prosecution and two defence witnesses, including Rosmah herself, testified during the prosecution and defence stages since the trial began.
Rosmah, 70, is accused of soliciting RM187.5 million and receiving RM5 million from Jepak Holdings Sdn Bhd.
She is accused of receiving the money from Jepak Holdings managing director Saidi Abang Samsudin in exchange for helping the company secure the RM1.25 billion project to supply solar hybrid energy to 369 schools in Sarawak. - NST
