Prison Dept vehicles enter Najib’s home as preparations for house arrest appear to begin

Two Prison Department vehicles entered the residence of former Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak in Kuala Lumpur on September 19, 2026, as preparations for his house arrest appeared to commence. The vehicles arrived around 9:45 am, followed by several individuals in plain clothes who spoke with Najib's aide, Ahmad Lutfi Azhar.

The purpose of the visit remains unconfirmed, with Najib welcoming press members but refusing to comment. The day's events follow Najib's recent conditional pardon, which permits him to serve the remainder of his prison sentence under house arrest until August 23, 2028, provided he pays a RM50 million fine.
