Court took evidence of 'liar': Corby mum

22:50 AEST Fri May 27 2005

Schapelle Corby's mother has accused the Indonesian justice system of accepting the evidence of a "liar" to convict her daughter.

Corby, 27, was sentenced to 20 years in prison by a Bali court for trying to smuggle 4.1kg of marijuana into Indonesia.

Her mother, Rosleigh Rose, told the Nine network that she screamed at the judges after the verdict, saying they would never have another night's sleep.

"(I said) you bloody things, you bloody judges won't have another night's sleep," she said.

"Youse (sic) took a word of a bloody liar, one of you people, a customs officer. A liar.

"Our people, our witnesses swore on the bible to tell the truth and they did, but you take a word of one liar. They didn't use our witnesses at all.
