Conviction of Sheila Majid’s former clerk upheld, but sentence reduced

PUTRAJAYA: A former clerk who defrauded jazz queen Datuk Sheila Majid’s company of RM90,000 had her jail time cut down to four years by the Court of Appeal.

However, Nasimah Kamarudin did not manage to clear her conviction of criminal breach of trust against Sheila’s company, Magada Entertainment Sdn Bhd, in which she used several forged cheques to siphon the cash into her own bank account.
