Najib yet to pay RM50mil fine, says attorney-general
Dusuki Mokhtar says the fine must be paid at the Kuala Lumpur High Court registrar’s office.
Former Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak has not yet satisfied the RM50 million fine necessary for him to continue serving his remaining prison term under house arrest, according to Attorney-General Dusuki Mokhtar. The fine must be paid at the Kuala Lumpur High Court registrar's office, as the case was initially filed and heard there.
The source reported that while Najib's family has not yet paid the fine, it is unclear when it will be done, as the process could take some time. The standard operating procedures for Najib's house arrest will be released by the prisons department. Najib was granted a conditional pardon by the Yang di-Pertuan Agong, Sultan Ibrahim, on August 23, 2028, contingent upon the payment of his fine.
