If there were still obstacles, why accept the RM50m payment, asks Najib’s daughter

Nooryana Najwa Najib, daughter of former Malaysian Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak, has expressed her disappointment over the deferral of her father's house arrest. This comes after the Attorney General's Chambers (AGC) stated that the implementation would be postponed, despite the family having paid an RM50 million fine and submitted the court order to Kajang Prison authorities.

The delay occurred shortly after the payment was made at noon and the court order was submitted to the prison authorities, with the Ministry of Home Affairs reportedly attempting to delay the execution. Nooryana emphasized her family's confidence that the court-issued order should have been sufficient, questioning why the AGC issued a statement to defer the process.

She also questioned why the RM50 million payment was accepted if there were other conditions or obstacles, as stated in the beginning. The incident has brought her mind back to the challenges faced with the addendum decree issued by the 16th Yang di-Pertuan Agong last year, which has seen multiple delays and uncertainties, keeping Najib Razak in Kajang Prison.

Nooryana reiterated their desire for justice and transparency, expressing gratitude to all those who contributed to the Najib Razak Solidarity Fund, an UMNO-organized initiative.
