Sultan of Brunei's ex-wife suing her bodyguard Fatimah Lim over £11m jewellery theft






The Sultan of Brunei's former wife,  Mariam Aziz, 55,  has launched a UK legal action, suing her former bodyguard for the alleged theft of jewellery worth millions of dollars.

Mariam Aziz, 55, is demanding compensation from Fatimah Kumin Lim, who she says stole jewellery and diamonds worth more than $18m (£11m).

Ms Lim says she was authorised by Ms Aziz to sell some of the jewellery to pay off the latter's gambling debts.

Ms Aziz and the sultan, one of the world's richest men, divorced in 2003.
