Rosmah leaves for Jalan Duta Courts Complex after a night in MACC lock-up

PUTRAJAYA: Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor has left for the Jalan Duta Courts Complex Thursday (Oct 4) to answer charges of money laundering.

The wife of former prime minister left the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission headquarters here at 7.45am in a black Toyota Alphard bearing registration plate JRW3056 and was escorted by police and anti-graft officers.

After having spent a night in the MACC lock-up, Rosmah is expected to be charged with close to 20 charges under the Anti-Money Laundering, Anti-Terrorism Financing and Proceeds of Unlawful Activities Act.

On Wednesday, investigators decided to arrest the 67-year-old while she was giving her statement.

That was her third appointment with the MACC officials.

On June 5, she was questioned for about five hours by MACC investigators over a probe into SRC International, a former 1MDB subsidiary.

On Sept 26, Rosmah was called in for a second round of questioning – this time on 1MDB – which lasted almost 13 hours.
