  "summary": "Prosecutors have appealed against the acquittal of Datin Seri Zizie Izette Abdul Samad in a RM150 million FELCRA bribery case, contending that the Sessions Court's decision to dismiss the charges was incorrect. Zizie Izette, the wife of the late former Kinabatangan MP Bung Moktar Radin, was found not guilty by Judge Rosli Ahmad after the prosecution failed to prove the commission of the principal offence. The prosecution argues that the court's discharge and acquittal of Bung Moktar, who died on December 5 last year, impacted their ability to establish the necessary elements of the abetment charges. The case is scheduled for case management at the High Court tomorrow.",
