JOHOR BARU: The Attorney-General's Chambers (A-GC) was justified in seeking a correction to the court order governing Datuk Seri Najib Razak's house arrest.

PKR Youth deputy chief Nabil Halimi said the High Court's latest ruling ensured that the royal pardon was implemented according to its terms.

He said the High Court's decision to revoke the Nov 6 release order and replace it with a fresh order on Nov 10 vindicated the A-GC's move.

He said the earlier order had raised legal questions as its wording could be interpreted as granting Najib release from prison, although the royal pardon stipulated that he must serve the remainder of his sentence under house arrest until Aug 23, 2028.
