SHAH ALAM, Nov 7 — Attorney General Tan Sri Mohd Dusuki Mokhtar has requested an audience with His Majesty, Sultan Ibrahim, to discuss former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak’s house arrest in his SRC International case, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said today.
Anwar stressed that the Agong’s power to grant pardons was not being disputed, but said there was a legal issue involving Najib’s 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) case that required clarification by the courts.
“I have asked for the Attorney General to immediately meet the Agong to ‘mohon ampun’ and explain why that decision was accepted for the SRC case, but there is a problem as it involves the second case, which is the 1MDB case.
