They must respond to government suit on valuables, properties seized by police within a month, failing which the government can forfeit the properties through a court order, says Rabinder Singh.
PETALING JAYA: Former prime minister Najib Razak and his wife Rosmah Mansor can apply to the High Court to return the movable properties seized by the police last year if they can prove that these were lawfully acquired, a lawyer says.
He said the couple, or any other interested parties, have one month to respond after the government filed a civil forfeiture claim under the Anti-Money Laundering, Anti-Terrorism Financing and Proceeds of Unlawful Activities Act 2001 . The first notice of motion was to seize a piece of property in the Klang Valley, cash , jewellery, handbags, watches and sunglasses said to be worth RM680 million.
