  "account": "Former Umno Youth Chief Khairy Jamaluddin has called for Attorney General Dusuki Mokhtar to take a leave of absence from his duties due to the ongoing investigation into the postponement of Najib Razak's house arrest. The police are currently investigating Dusuki, including following earlier reports from Umno and the Attorney General's Chambers regarding the delay in implementing Najib's house arrest, which was ordered by the King's prerogative. The investigation process now requires the Attorney General to take leave of absence. Khairy urges the King to show restraint and show respect for the independence of the Attorney General's office through the establishment of the Advisory Board for granting forgiveness. He emphasizes that this matter is not trivial as it has already caused serious reactions in the Royal Palace, leading to a police report. Today, media reports indicate that Umno at the national level and the branch will file a police report regarding the postponement of the conditional pardon for Najib. At the outset of today, the Royal Palace stressed that any challenge to the conditional pardon allowing Najib to serve the remaining prison term under house arrest would be legal and could enable him to complete the remainder of his sentence. Yesterday, Umno officially settled the RM50 million fine imposed on its former president following the collection of funds through a contribution campaign. The High Court subsequently issued an order for his release after the payment was recorded, but the Attorney General's Chambers issued a statement that the house arrest should be postponed while the legal issues surrounding the pardon order and its impact on the High Court's judgment are being investigated. Meanwhile, the former Prime Minister was also summoned for a 15-year prison sentence and a fine of RM11.387 billion in the 1MDB case. The Prime Minister's Office stated that the Attorney General today requested permission to appear before the King to seek forgiveness and demonstrate his commitment to complying with the conditional pardon order for Najib in the SRC International case. The Attorney General will also explain the legal issues arising from the High Court's release order following the payment of the RM50 million fine, as it will affect the starting date of Najib's prison term in the 1MDB case.",
