The High Court in Kuala Lumpur has instructed Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor to file her defence
00:05
by July 4 in response to a lawsuit filed by One Malaysia Development Senderian Berhad
00:10
(1MDB) seeking to recover US$346 million allegedly misused in the purchase of luxury goods.
00:19
High Court Deputy Registrar S. Malar Selvi also ordered 1MDB as the plaintiff to file
00:26
their statement of claim before June 4.
00:30
These deadlines were set during case management on Friday.
00:33
On May 9, 1MDB, together with SRC International Senderian Berhad and nine subsidiaries, filed
00:40
a lawsuit against Rosmah seeking US$346 million.
00:45
The plaintiffs alleged that Rosmah, the wife of former Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib
00:49
Razak, used funds from the companies to buy luxury items such as jewellery, watches and
00:55
handbags.
00:56
The lawsuit named Rosmah as the first defendant and Shabnam Narayanda Staswani, also known
01:01
as Natasha Mirpuri, a Singapore-based fashion designer, as the second defendant.
01:07
The plaintiffs claimed that Shabnam procured luxury items on behalf of Rosmah.
01:12
According to the plaintiffs, funds from 1MDB and its subsidiaries were funnelled through
01:16
various offshore entities and paid to 48 vendors across 14 jurisdictions for the luxury goods.
01:24
They alleged that a total of 320 payments amounting to over US$346 million were made.
01:32
The plaintiffs argued that the luxury goods were traceable substitutes of 1MDB and its
01:37
subsidiaries' trust property, thus granting them an equitable proprietary interest in
01:43
the items.
01:45
They are seeking a court declaration affirming this interest and an order for Rosmah to pay
01:50
the plaintiffs US$346 million.
01:54
The next case management is fixed on June 14.
