Bank officer Nor Ashikin Abdullah testifies that the money was deposited through cash deposit machines into an account the prosecution says belongs to Rosmah Mansor.
The court was also initially scheduled to hear Rosmah Mansor’s appeal against the sentence and conviction by Justice Zaini Mazlan.
KUALA LUMPUR: The High Court hearing Rosmah Mansor’s money laundering and tax evasion trial today was told that more than RM1.09 million was deposited into her personal account between 2014 and 2017. Bank officer Nor Ashikin Abdullah said the funds were banked in through cash deposit machines at various branches into an account bearing numbers ending with 0058, which the prosecution says belongs to Rosmah.The prosecution contends that large sums of money were deposited into the account, and that they were not declared to the Inland Revenue Board as income.
Also testifying today was Faizal Shamsuddin, a former army officer who used to work at Seri Perdana, the prime minister’s official residence. Faizal told the court he was instructed by Roslan Sohari, the Seri Perdana house manager at the time, to go to Affin Bank’s branch at Bangunan Getah Asli on June 17, 2015.“I only knew the envelope contained cash when the officer opened it,” he said in reply to a question by deputy public prosecutor Poh Yih Tinn.
