Accepted Answer

Rosmah Mansor Made No Payment for Jewellery She Kept, Court Orders RM67.5 Million

Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor did not pay for the luxury jewellery she retained, and the High Court has ordered her to pay RM67.5 million to Lebanese jeweller Samer Halimeh for 43 missing pieces. The court found that Rosmah received 44 pieces of jewellery worth US$14.57 million on a consignment basis in 2018 but failed to purchase or return most of them.
Jewellery Supplied on Consignment Basis

The dispute involved 44 pieces of luxury jewellery valued at US$14.57 million, supplied by Samer Halimeh's company, Global Royalty Trading SAL, to Rosmah Mansor in 2018. These items were provided under a consignment arrangement, meaning they were for viewing with the intention of potential purchase, rather than an outright sale at the time of delivery.
Failure to Return 43 Pieces

The High Court ruled that Rosmah had received the jewellery but did not complete any purchase or make any payment for the majority of the items. She was found liable for failing to return 43 of the 44 pieces supplied. The court's decision highlighted Rosmah's failure to account for the whereabouts of these missing pieces.
One Item Recovered

Out of the 44 pieces delivered, only one item, a diamond and emerald bracelet, was eventually recovered and returned to Global Royalty Trading SAL. This recovery occurred following separate forfeiture proceedings, indicating that the majority of the luxury jewellery remained unaccounted for by Rosmah.
Court Order for Payment

Consequently, the High Court ordered Rosmah Mansor to pay RM67,461,027.37, approximately RM67.5 million, to Samer Halimeh within one month. This judgment reflects the value of the 43 missing jewellery pieces that were not purchased or returned by her.
