KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia (AP) — The wife of jailed ex-Prime Minister Najib Razak is in court for a verdict in her corruption trial involving a solar energy project in schools. The decision Thursday in Rosmah Mansor’s case comes a week after Najib began his 12-year jail term in the first of five cases against him over the looted 1MDB state fund. Rosmah is seeking to disqualify the judge after an alleged guilty verdict was leaked online. Police said the document was from the court’s research unit and not a judgment. Rosmah faces three charges of soliciting bribes and receiving $1.5 million between 2016 and 2017 to help a company secure the solar project.
