On November 10, the Attorney General's Chambers (AGC) requested that the High Court clarify the terms of Datuk Seri Najib Razak's house arrest to ensure his return to Kajang Prison on August 24, 2028, for serving his 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) prison sentence. The prosecution argued that the earlier discharge order, issued on November 6, needed to be replaced with new terms.
They wanted Najib's SRC sentence to end on August 23, 2028, with his return to prison contingent on any subsequent court order. The AGC emphasized that the 1MDB prison sentence was to begin immediately following the completion of his SRC sentence, and that the RM50 million fine payment on November 6 only discharged him from the fine and non-payment imprisonment, not the remaining SRC sentence.
The High Court judge, Datuk Aslam Zainuddin, granted the AGC's application, replacing the November 6 discharge order with the new terms.
