Former law minister Nazri Aziz said parties dissatisfied with the Pardons Board's decision regarding former prime minister Najib Abdul Razak's house arrest should bring a motion to Parliament to amend the Federal Constitution, rather than urging a review of the decision.

The statement follows the High Court's Nov 10 decision allowing Najib to serve the remainder of his prison sentence for the SRC International case via house arrest, as well as the Malaysian Bar’s move to file a judicial review application challenging the Pardons Board’s decision.

According to Nazri, the power to grant pardons lies with the Yang di-Pertuan Agong and decisions made through the Pardons Board must be respected by all parties.
