KUALA LUMPUR, July 27 \u00a0—\u00a0Former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak and his wife, Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor had inspected 306 handbags, 401 watches, 16 watch accessories and 234 eyeglasses seized by police from a premise belonging to Obyu Holdings Sdn Bhd in Pavilion Residences in May 2018.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The items were allegedly proceeds from unlawful activities\u00a0linked to the 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) fund scandal.\u00a0The seizure was made under the Anti-Money Laundering, Anti-Terrorism Financing, and Proceeds of Unlawful Activities Act (AMLATFPUAA) 2001.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deputy public prosecutor, Faten Hadni Khairuddin told reporters this after the case management at the High Court, here, today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Earlier during the proceedings, Faten Hadni informed High Court judge\u00a0Datuk Muhammad Jamil Hussin that Najib and Rosmah had inspected the non-jewelry items on July 25.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The seized items are now kept in Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHowever, inspection\u00a0of the jewelry items is yet to be done as the Lebanese jeweler, Global Royalty Trading SAL is\u00a0still not allowed to enter the country as our borders are\u00a0currently closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI request for the court to fix another case management for Najib, Rosmah,\u00a0and Global Royalty Trading SAL to decide on a date to view the jewelry items,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The judge fixed Aug 26 \u00a0for case management. Last March,\u00a0the judge\u00a0allowed Najib and Rosmah to view the\u00a0jewelry items seized by the authorities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The prosecution had filed the application to forfeit the assets said to be worth RM680 million that was seized from the Obyu Holdings premises which are owned by Tan Sri Bustari Yusof.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Najib, Rosmah, UMNO, and Global Royalty were the third parties\u00a0in the forfeiture application.\u00a0UMNO, which\u00a0is claiming an unspecified amount of cash placed in the properties,\u00a0however, did not apply to inspect the monies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Global Royalty was represented by lawyer Venathani Rajagopal, while Zahria Eleena Redza acted for Najib and Mardhyah Siraj appeared for UMNO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
