Tengku Adnan Tengku Mansor has been sentenced to 12 months' jail and RM2 million fine in his RM2 million corruption case.

The High Court judge in Kuala Lumpur, Mohamed Zaini Mazlan, delivered the verdict as the accused looked on from the dock during open-court proceedings this morning.

However, the judge allowed the defence's bid to stay the execution of the sentence pending appeal to the Court of Appeal.

Earlier today, the court had found the former federal territories minister guilty of the graft charge.
