Loke, other top guns arrive for CEC meeting on Najib
The meeting will decide DAP's position and follow-up action after Najib Razak’s conditional pardon.
DAP secretary-general Loke Siew Fook is hosting an emergency central executive committee (CEC) meeting at the party's headquarters in Kuala Lumpur. This meeting follows Najib Razak's conditional pardon. Loke entered the headquarters around 2:54 pm, followed by other DAP leaders including Gobind Singh Deo, Khoo Poay Tiong, Ngeh Koo Ham, Teo Nie Ching, Hannah Yeoh, Nga Kor Ming, Syahredzan Johan, J Arul Kumar, Kasthuri Patto, and Lim Hui Ying.
The meeting commenced at 3 pm to determine the party's stance and subsequent actions regarding the conditional pardon. The pardon allows Najib, 73, to complete his six-year prison sentence at home, provided he pays the RM50 million fine from his SRC International case. His original sentence was 12 years, reduced to six and subsequently halved to three years.
