KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 6 — The Attorney General’s Chambers (AGC) says the implementation of Datuk Seri Najib Razak’s house arrest should be temporarily postponed pending legal clarification on the interpretation of his conditional pardon and the effect of a High Court order issued today.
In a statement, the AGC said Najib’s detention status should remain unchanged at his existing place of detention while the legal issues were being examined.
The conditional pardon granted by the Yang di-Pertuan Agong Sultan Ibrahim on September 18, 2026 allowed Najib to serve the remainder of his sentence under house arrest until August 23, 2028, subject to payment of a RM50 million fine and compliance with the stipulated conditions.
