Najib’s daughter laments ‘delay after delay’ in father’s release
Nooryana Najwa Najib questions why the RM50 million fine was accepted if there were obstacles to implementing the conditional pardon granted to her father.
Najib Razak's daughter, Nooryana Najwa, has expressed her frustration over the ongoing delays in releasing her father from house arrest. She stated that the family is only seeking justice and believes the conditional pardon for her father should be respected. Despite paying the RM50 million fine demanded by the conditional pardon, Nooryana expressed disappointment, as she believes the family followed all the prescribed procedures.
She questioned why additional conditions were not shared from the beginning and why the payment of the fine was accepted without addressing potential obstacles. Nooryana's comments come after the Attorney-General's Chambers suggested that her father's house arrest should be put on hold until a review of the conditional pardon and the Order of Discharge takes place.
The AGC highlighted that these issues involve complex legal questions with implications for the execution of the royal pardon and a court order. However, Istana Negara, the Malaysian royal palace, clarified that the conditional pardon order is clear and unambiguous, and its interpretation should not be subject to prolonged uncertainty.
They emphasized that any challenges to the order would be seen as defiance of the decision made by His Majesty the Yang di-Pertuan Agong.
