  "summary": "The Court of Appeal in Malaysia has granted applications by Rosmah Mansor, wife of former Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak, to introduce new evidence in her corruption conviction appeal. The three-member panel of Justices Choo Kah Sing, Azhahari Kamal Ramli, and K. Muniandy allowed the additional evidence to be heard by the High Court, emphasizing that it should be relevant, credible, and capable of belief. The new evidence, which pertains to Rosmah's alleged knowledge and the role of Rizal Mansor, as well as the credibility of witness Rayyan Radzwill Abdullah's testimony, will be presented through further cross-examination and re-examination. The High Court is expected to hear the evidence within two weeks of the decision. The case, which involves Rosmah's conviction for graft related to a solar hybrid project for 369 rural schools in Sarawak, was initially scheduled to commence on September 1 and continue for 16 days.",
