KUALA LUMPUR: Mahkamah Tinggi yang mendengar kes rasuah Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor diberitahu bahawa Suruhanjaya Pencegahan Rasuah Malaysia (SPRM) telah menyoal siasat doktor sebuah hospital swasta yang mengeluarkan sijil cuti sakit kepada isteri bekas perdana menteri itu.
Peguam Datuk Jagjit Singh memaklumkan Hakim Mohamed Zaini Mazlan bahawa pegawai SPRM telah menyoal siasat doktor tersebut pada Selasa.
“Ini adalah satu intimidasi, Yang Arif! Mengapa SPRM bertindak sebegini. Siapa yang mengarahkan pegawai terbabit untuk pergi dan menyoal siasat doktor itu. Ini tidak seharusnya dibenarkan sama sekali,” katanya yang meminta mahkamah membuat keputusan mengenai perkara itu.
Bagaimanapun, Timbalan Pendakwa Raya Kanan Datuk Seri Gopal Sri Ram berkata persoalan di sini ialah sama ada tertuduh sihat atau sebaliknya untuk menghadiri perbicaraan, oleh itu, SPRM perlu menyiasat perkara tersebut dan mereka hanya menjalankan tugas.
“Jika doktor itu berasa terancam, beliau seharusnya membuat laporan polis,” katanya.
Mohamed Zaini berkata beliau tidak mempunyai kapasiti untuk membuat sebarang keputusan atau perintah berhubung perkara itu.
“Saya minta maaf, jika ini kesnya, individu terbabit seharusnya bebas untuk membuat laporan polis,” katanya yang kemudian mengarahkan agar perbicaraan kes itu dimulakan.
Perbicaraan kes rasuah Rosmah dijadualkan bermula pada Isnin lepas namun ditangguhkan sehingga Rabu selepas beliau gagal hadir ke mahkamah pada hari tersebut atas alasan tidak sihat dan diberikan cuti sakit sehingga 8 Feb.
Mohamed Zaini berkata mahkamah bersimpati dengan keadaan Rosmah dan membenarkan penangguhan selama dua hari namun menegaskan bahawa tiada penangguhan lanjut akan dibenarkan.
Beliau berkata Rosmah akan dibenarkan menggunakan kerusi roda di dalam mahkamah dan masa rehat yang kerap akan diberikan semasa perbicaraan jika beliau berasa tidak sihat.
Rosmah, 68, mengaku tidak bersalah atas pertuduhan meminta RM187.5 juta dan dua pertuduhan menerima rasuah sebanyak RM6.5 juta daripada Pengarah Urusan Jepak Holdings Sdn Bhd, Saidi Abang Samsudin, menerusi bekas pembantu Rosmah iaitu Datuk Rizal Mansor bagi projek membekalkan tenaga solar kepada 369 sekolah luar bandar di Sarawak.
Beliau didakwa melakukan kesalahan itu di tiga tempat iaitu Lygon Cafe, Sunway Putra Mall di Jalan Putra, di kediamannya di Jalan Langgak Duta, Taman Duta dan at Seri Perdana Residence, Persiaran Seri Perdana, Precinct 10, Putrajaya antara Januari 2016 dan 7 Sept 2017.

MACC probes doctor over MC – Rosmah’s lawyer cries ‘intimidation’
Kow Gah Chie Published: Feb 5th, 2020
ROSMAH MANSOR TRIAL | Lawyer Jagjit Singh criticised MACC’s investigation into a doctor who certified that his client Rosmah Mansor was unfit to attend trial on Monday.
“This is intimidation!” he stressed, raising his voice in the Kuala Lumpur High Court today.
“Who gave such instructions? This should not be permitted,” he thundered.
Lead prosecutor Gopal Sri Ram responded that the MACC merely wanted to establish the authenticity of the medical report.
Asking the court not to interfere in the matter, he said the doctor should lodge a police report if he or she felt threatened.
Rosmah, who is former premier Najib Abdul Razak’s wife, attended court this morning despite news of her being hospitalised on Monday night.
She is facing three counts of corruption involving hundreds of millions of ringgit.
On Nov 15, 2018, Rosmah pleaded not guilty to two counts of soliciting RM187.5 million and receiving RM1.5 million for projects to provide solar energy to rural schools in Sarawak.
Meanwhile, judge Mohamed Zaini Mazlan told Jagjit that he does not have the capacity to look into the matter.
“I am sorry. I am not in the capacity (of deliberating on this). If this is the case, the individual (the doctor) should feel free to lodge a police report,” he added.

Met outside court later, Jagjit said the defence is unable to do anything about this since the court declined to put a stop to the intimidation.
“Where is the ethics? Is that not criminal intimidation? But the judge said ‘no’,” he added.
Earlier, Jagjit updated the court regarding Rosmah’s health condition. The lawyer said his client’s blood sample would be sent to Australia for testing.
Jagjit also expressed unhappiness with the court for instructing Rosmah to attend the hearing this morning.
He said most courts would accept and abide by the medical certificate produced before them in the event an accused is ill and cannot attend.
“But his lordship ordered her to be present here despite her condition, she came from the hospital,” Jagjit added.
He said Rosmah had to sign a document at the hospital stating that she would be doing so on her own risk. Following the hearing, she would return to the hospital.
Asked if his client would be able to attend the hearing tomorrow, Jagjit replied: “God willing.”
On Monday, Jagjit produced a medical report in court stating that Rosmah was suffering from cervical spondylosis, osteoarthritis in both knees and chronic adrenal insufficiency.
