  "account": "The High Court in Kuala Lumpur has scheduled September 17 for the hearing of additional evidence in Rosmah Mansor's solar hybrid project graft trial. This follows the Court of Appeal's decision to allow Rosmah's application for extra evidence. Judge Aslam Zainuddin announced the date after Jagjit Singh, Rosmah's counsel, informed the court that the Court of Appeal had approved her application. The additional evidence includes a police report and a statutory declaration from Rayyan Radzwill, the prosecution's 16th witness, who claims he faced pressure from prosecutors during the trial. The Court of Appeal's order also requires the additional evidence to be obtained through further cross-examination and re-examination of Rayyan. The defence team, including Rosmah's other counsel, Datuk Akberdin Abdul Kader, expressed concern over the tight timeline, but the prosecution has already filed an appeal against the Court of Appeal's decision and is seeking a stay of the order.",
