KUALA LUMPUR: Datuk Seri Najib Razak has posted a brief "Alhamdulillah" message on his Facebook page following the High Court's order allowing him to serve the remainder of his SRC International prison sentence under house arrest.
The former prime minister shared the one-word post after High Court judge Datuk Aslam Zainuddin today ordered him to serve the remainder of his reduced six-year prison term at his Taman Duta residence until Aug 23, 2028.
Earlier, Aslam set aside the Nov 6 order of discharge on payment of fine and replaced it in full with today's order, in accordance with the conditional royal pardon granted on Sept 18.
Najib's lawyer, Tan Sri Muhammad Shafee Abdullah, said Najib was expected to begin serving his sentence at home after stopping at Kajang Prison.
