1MDB applied to freeze 11,991 pieces of jewellery, more than 400 luxury handbags and more than 300 watches that were said to be in Rosmah’s control. KUALA LUMPUR - Rosmah Mansor, the wife of Malaysia’s former prime minister Najib Razak, has given an undertaking to the High Court to not dispose of or sell her designer handbags, jewellery and other luxury items disputed in a US$346 million (S$468 million) lawsuit filed by 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) against her. The undertaking was made through her lawyers Reza Rahim and Muhammad Shafee Abdullah, in a Zoom proceeding related to an application for a Mareva injunction before Judicial Commissioner Adlin Abdul Majid on June 14.
A Mareva injunction is a temporary order that restrains the defendant from disposing of assets until the determination of the case between the plaintiff and the defendant. The ad interim injunction was recorded by the court after 1MDB, which was represented by lawyer Lim Chee Wee, agreed to the undertaking. The case will be heard again on July 4.
