KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 12 — The Attorney General’s Chambers (AGC) is objecting to the Malaysian Bar’s application for leave to initiate a judicial review challenging the Federal Territories Pardons Board’s decision allowing former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak to serve the remainder of his prison sentence in the SRC International Sdn Bhd case under house arrest.
Senior Federal Counsel Ahmad Hanir Hambaly@Arwi told High Court Judge S. Indra Nehru today that the AGC had received the Malaysian Bar’s application via email two days ago and needed time to study it before filing its written submissions.
“Certainly, the Attorney General is objecting to this leave application because the impugned decision relates to the decision of the Yang di-Pertuan Agong in presiding over a Pardons Board meeting, which is non-justiciable.
