More Than Meets The Eye Why Have Cops Not Summoned Rosmah To Identify Her 44 Pieces Of Bling Sent By Lebanese Jeweler

---

A COURT order directing the government to allow Rosmah Mansor to identify the 44 pieces of jewellery sent to her by a Lebanese company has lapsed without the police contacting her, said her lawyer
Rosmah was given seven days by Kuala Lumpur High Court judicial commissioner Wong Chee Lin on February 14, to view all the jewellery seized from premises linked to former prime minister Najib Razak, and identify the jewellery from the Lebanese company
That order expired on Wednesday, Rosmah’s lawyer N. Rajivan told The Malaysian Insight
“They (police) have not gotten our client to come and inspect the jewellery. Basically they have not complied with the court order,” Rajivan said
The jewellery, worth US$14.79 million (RM60.21 million), was believed to have been seized by police shortly after the 14th general election last May
Jeweller Salmeh Halimeh, who runs Global Royalty Trading SAL, had sued the former prime minister’s wife, saying he was not compensated for the jewellery
Rajivan said the court will now hear applications by Rosmah, as well as the government, to stay proceedings pending confirmation from police on the whereabouts of the jewellery
Wong had previously ordered the parties to be prepared for trial if an application for a stay comes through or is not granted. The trial is set to proceed on March 4 and 5
On February 12, the court was told that police are still unable to determine whether they have in their possession the 44 pieces of jewellery, which were allegedly not paid for
Government lawyers told the court that police cannot confirm whether the items from Global Royalty Trading SAL were part of the 12,000 pieces of jewellery seized in raids on premises linked to Najib last May
