Najib's Langgak Duta home under 24-hour police security

KUALA LUMPUR: In response to Najib Razak's conditional house arrest, police have implemented a continuous 24-hour security presence at his residence in Jalan Langgak Duta. City police chief Datuk Fadil Marsus confirmed the security detail's ongoing presence until further notice. Fadil emphasized the importance of maintaining security at the residence, stating that personnel from the Sentul district police headquarters and the contingent headquarters are involved.

Upon Razak's conditional release from prison in September 18, he was required to adhere to all conditions, including paying a RM50 million fine imposed for his conviction in the SRC International case. He must continue to comply with these conditions until August 23, 2028, for the remainder of his sentence. Fadil also highlighted the appointment of new leaders within the City police force, including Senior Assistant Commissioner Shaidatul Akmar Mohd Noor as the Special Branch chief and Assistant Commissioner Ahmad Azwan Amin Nordin as the Dang Wangi district police chief.

Both appointments are seen as crucial in maintaining the capital's security and stability amidst the evolving security landscape. Fadil also expressed condolences for the passing of Tun Dr Siti Hasmah Mohamad Ali.
