What are the terms of Najib’s house arrest? Saifuddin Nasution to explain in Dewan Rakyat

Former Prime Minister Najib Razak's family members and other individuals are not allowed to reside with him during his house arrest, according to Nurulhidayah Ahmad Zahid, a member of the Umno Women’s executive council. Rosmah Mansor, Najib's wife, is reportedly expected to remain at her residence in Pavilion rather than the Taman Duta house where he is serving his sentence.

In response to questions on Threads about the enforcement of the house arrest order, Nurulhidayah stated that the Taman Duta residence has been officially designated as a prison, thereby subjecting it to standard prison regulations. She further mentioned that online food purchases would not be permitted, and all meals and drinks would be dictated by prison authorities.

Additionally, visiting hours would be regulated by authorities and conducted following procedures akin to those in correctional facilities. On November 6, High Court judge Aslam Zainuddin revoked a release order issued on the same day and substituted it with a new order transferring Najib from Kajang Prison to the Taman Duta residence, effective immediately, in accordance with a conditional pardon issued for him.

This order enables Najib to complete the remainder of his prison term under house detention until August 23, 2028, following his conviction in the SRC International Sdn Bhd case.
