  "account": "The residence of former Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak at No. 11, Jalan Langgak Duta, Taman Duta, Kuala Lumpur has been declared as a prison for the lawful detention of individuals, allowing him to serve his sentence in his own home. This declaration was made by the Minister of Home Affairs, Saifuddin Nasution Ismail, in accordance with Section 3 of the Penal Halls Act 1995 (Act 537). The official document is enclosed in a Government Gazette dated today, which has been published on the official portal of the Attorney General's Chambers (AGC).\n\nThe document states that under Section 3 of the Penal Halls Act 1995 (Act 537), the Minister has declared all buildings and premises with an area of 4,558.975 square meters located at No. 11, Jalan Langgak Duta, Taman Duta, Kuala Lumpur (Lot 5746, Kuala Lumpur District, Kuala Lumpur Federal Territory) as a prison for the purpose of lawful detention or custody of individuals. The declaration took effect on the day it was registered, today.\n\nNajib is reported to have finalized his payment of a RM50 million fine for the SRC International Sdn Bhd embezzlement case at the High Court Registrar's Office today. This payment is one of the conditions for the Royal Advisor's conditional pardon granted on September 18, allowing Najib to serve the remainder of his prison sentence under house arrest until August 23, 2028. However, the AGC, in a statement, clarified that the implementation of house arrest for the former Prime Minister has been postponed until further investigations and explanations regarding the interpretation of the Conditional Pardon Order and relevant Release Order are completed. During this period of postponement, Najib remains in the existing place of detention, subject to the authority and instructions of the relevant authorities.",
