Conditions for Najib’s house arrest to reflect govt’s resolve to fight corruption and abuse of power — Hafiz Hassan

Former Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak has been granted a conditional royal pardon, allowing him to serve the remainder of his prison sentence under house arrest until 23 August 2028. The conditions attached to this pardon include strict compliance with statutory terms, such as remaining in lawful custody of prison authorities, attending counselling and therapy sessions, reporting for drug and hair testing, and wearing an electronic monitoring device to ensure compliance with the conditions.

Failure to adhere to these conditions will result in the immediate revocation of the pardon and return to prison.
