The defence counsel of Rosmah Mansor had criticised the RM970 million fine that was slapped onto her in her conviction over three graft charges linked to the RM1.25 billion solar hybrid project.

The Kuala Lumpur High Court this afternoon sentenced Rosmah Mansor to 10 years in jail and the RM970 million fine, with an additional 30 years’ imprisonment if she fails to pay the fine.

In a press conference after today’s hearing, lawyer Jagjit Singh pointed out that the imposed fine was unprecedented in the history of Malaysia’s legal system.

“The fine is RM970 million, that is almost one billion ringgit. You tell me, can anybody afford that amount? I can’t afford that.
