The former prime minister of Malaysia, Datuk Seri Najib Razak, returned to Kajang Prison on November 6, as the Attorney General's Chambers (AGC) temporarily postponed the implementation of his house arrest. The decision came after media and security personnel gathered outside Najib's residence in anticipation of his arrival. Najib, 73, was previously released from prison on January 2024 after a Federal Territories Pardons Board decision halved his jail term and reduced his fine.
The AGC's temporary deferment was meant to ensure proper implementation of the royal pardon granted to him, while legal questions surrounding the conditional pardon and the court order were examined.
