PUTRAJAYA: Hannah Yeoh, Minister in the Prime Minister's Department (Federal Territories), has been tasked with addressing inquiries and clarifications surrounding the suspension of former Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak's pardon application, according to Azalina Othman Said. The Minister clarified that she was not the minister accountable for the Pardons Board; instead, the Legal Affairs Division (BHEUU) operates as its secretariat under her ministry.
However, at the state level, the Pardons Board comprises representatives from the minister and the menteri besar, with BHEUU serving as the secretariat for each state's board. When asked about the reasons behind the deferral and the subsequent new deadline, Yeoh stated that she lacked any information and therefore could not provide answers.
The suggestion for the government to clarify the reason for the delay in reviewing Najib's application gained momentum after Pas secretary-general Datuk Seri Takiyuddin Hassan demanded an immediate explanation, citing the matter as of public interest.
