Bernama reported that the applications were filed at the Kuala Lumpur High Court on May 4, naming Salwani and Nor Shahira as respondents.

In the application involving Salwani, the prosecution is seeking to forfeit to the government a Range Rover Sport SVR, a 916 gold bracelet weighing 15.1g, and three gold rings weighing 1.33g, 1.41g and 1.35g, respectively.

Included in the forfeiture application is a pair of gold earrings weighing 6.640g, valued at an estimated RM10,930, seized from Salwani.

According to the application notice, the assets were seized under Section 45(2) of the Anti-Money Laundering, Anti-Terrorism Financing and Proceeds of Unlawful Activities Act 2001 and are  being held by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission.

Deputy public prosecutor Natrah Fareha Rahmat said the court set May 19 for case mention during proceedings before High Court deputy registrar Zaridah Y Abdul Jaapar today.

Deputy public prosecutor Mahadi Abdul Jumaat told sessions court judge Rosli Ahmad that in Nor Shahira’s case, the prosecution was seeking to forfeit 23 Rolex watches and 15 pieces of jewellery.

He said the application was made because the prosecution was satisfied that the movable assets seized by MACC should be forfeited as they were allegedly obtained from, or linked to, an offence under Section 165 of the Penal Code involving graft.

Mahadi said the prosecution was also seeking a court order to publish a gazette notice requiring any party with an interest in the assets to come forward and appear in court, under Section 41(2) of the MACC Act 2009.

The court set June 26 for case mention and the attendance of third parties in this case.
