Rosmah faces Mareva injunction bid, 1MDB seeks to freeze US$346m luxury assets

The Kuala Lumpur High Court has set January 7, 2024, to hear the Mareva injunction application by 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) and ten other companies against Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor.

The injunction aims to prevent her from disposing of assets allegedly acquired with misappropriated 1MDB funds, totaling over US$346 million.

The case management noted that Judicial Commissioner Datuk Muhammad Adam @ Edward Abdullah will deliver the decision on the injunction on the same day.

The lawsuit, initially filed in May 2024, seeks a declaration of the plaintiffs as the rightful owners of these luxury assets and orders Rosmah to pay US$346 million or an amount deemed appropriate by the court.

KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 28 — The High Court here has fixed Jan 7 next year to hear the Mareva injunction application filed by 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) and 10 other companies against Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor.

The application is part of a lawsuit involving luxury goods worth more than US$346 million (RM1.41 billion), allegedly acquired using misappropriated 1MDB funds.

Judicial Commissioner Datuk Muhammad Adam @ Edward Abdullah, who fixed the date, said the court would also deliver its decision on the injunction application on the same day.

He said this during case management proceedings attended by Rosmah’s counsel Sheena Stephanie Sebastian and counsel for 1MDB, Henna Nikita Sanghvi.

A Mareva injunction is an interim court order that would prevent the wife of former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak from disposing of assets worth US$346 million, including cash, company shares, real estate and other assets, pending the disposal of the suit.

On May 9, 2024, 1MDB and the 10 companies, including five of its subsidiaries, namely 1MDB Energy Holdings Limited, 1MDB Energy Limited, 1MDB Energy (Langat) Limited, Global Diversified Investment Company Limited and SRC International Sdn Bhd filed the lawsuit against Rosmah.

The other plaintiffs are Affinity Equity International Partners Limited, Alsen Chance Holdings Limited, BlackRock Commodities (Global) Limited, Blackstone Asia Real Estate Partners Limited and Brightstone Jewellery Limited.

They are seeking a court order requiring Rosmah to pay US$346,010,489, or any other amount deemed appropriate by the court, as well as a declaration that the first to sixth plaintiffs are the lawful owners of the luxury goods allegedly in Rosmah’s possession.

The suit was originally filed against Rosmah as the first defendant and Singaporean national Shabnam Naraindas Daswani as the second defendant.

However, in April 2025, the plaintiffs withdrew the suit against Shabnam.

The court fixed the trial from June 28 to July 2, July 5 to July 9, and July 19 to July 30, 2027. — Bernama

吉隆坡高等法院已定于 2024 年 1 月 7 日审理一马发展有限公司（1MDB）和其他 10 家公司针对拿汀斯里罗斯玛曼索尔提出的 Mareva 禁令申请。

该禁令旨在阻止她处置据称用挪用的 1MDB 资金购买的资产，总额超过 3.46 亿美元。

案件管理部门指出，司法专员拿督穆罕默德·亚当（又名爱德华·阿卜杜拉）将于当日就禁令作出裁决。

该诉讼最初于 2024 年 5 月提起，旨在宣告原告为这些奢侈品的合法所有者，并命令罗斯玛支付 3.46 亿美元或法院认为适当的金额。

吉隆坡，9月28日讯——吉隆坡高等法院已定于明年1月7日审理一马发展有限公司（1MDB）和其他10家公司针对拿汀斯里罗斯玛·曼苏尔提出的马雷瓦禁令申请。

该申请是一起诉讼的一部分，该诉讼涉及价值超过 3.46 亿美元（14.1 亿令吉）的奢侈品，据称这些奢侈品是用挪用的 1MDB 资金购买的。

确定开庭日期的司法专员拿督穆罕默德·亚当（又名爱德华·阿卜杜拉）表示，法庭也将在同一天就禁令申请作出裁决。

他在案件管理听证会上说了这番话，罗斯玛的律师希娜·斯蒂芬妮·塞巴斯蒂安和1MDB的律师汉娜·尼基塔·桑维也出席了听证会。

Mareva 禁令是一项临时法院命令，旨在阻止前首相拿督斯里纳吉·敦·拉扎克的妻子处置价值 3.46 亿美元的资产，包括现金、公司股份、房地产和其他资产，直至诉讼结束。

2024 年 5 月 9 日，1MDB 及其 10 家子公司（包括 1MDB Energy Holdings Limited、1MDB Energy Limited、1MDB Energy (Langat) Limited、Global Diversified Investment Company Limited 和 SRC International Sdn Bhd）对罗斯玛提起诉讼。

其他原告包括 Affinity Equity International Partners Limited、Alsen Chance Holdings Limited、BlackRock Commodities (Global) Limited、Blackstone Asia Real Estate Partners Limited 和 Brightstone Jewellery Limited。

他们寻求法院命令，要求罗斯玛支付 346,010,489 美元，或法院认为合适的任何其他金额，并宣布第一至第六原告是据称在罗斯玛手中的奢侈品的合法所有者。

该诉讼最初以罗斯玛为第一被告，以新加坡公民沙布南·纳兰达斯·达斯瓦尼为第二被告提起。

然而，在 2025 年 4 月，原告撤回了对 Shabnam 的诉讼。

法院将庭审日期定于2027年6月28日至7月2日、7月5日至7月9日以及7月19日至7月30日。——马新社
