KUALA LUMPUR: A wholesale jeweller from Lebanon has filed a suit against Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor, demanding that she pay US$14.57mil (RM67.46mil) for violating a contract involving 43 pieces of jewellery sent to her five years ago. The plaintiff, Global Royalty Trading SAL, which is based in Beirut, filed the suit through Messrs David Gurupatham and Koay at the High Court here on March 29. The suit named the wife of former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak as the sole defendant. In its statement of claim, Global Royalty claimed that Rosmah, 71, had said in her affidavit and statement of defence that 44 pieces of jewellery, including diamond necklaces, earrings, rings, bracelets and tiaras sent to her by the company's agent had been seized by Malaysian authorities for offences under the Anti-Money Laundering, Anti-Terrorism Financing and Proceeds of Unlawful Activities Act 2001.
