Rosmah Mansor, the former first lady of Malaysia, has been sentenced to 10 years in prison for soliciting and receiving bribes in exchange for government contracts.  The Kuala Lumpur High Court Judge Mohamed Zaini Mazlan said that Mansor, 70, will pay a fine of US$216 million, which is a record amount in Malaysia's history.
