  "account": "Former Malaysian prime minister Najib Razak spent eight hours outside his home on Friday, engaging in four designated activities, according to the prisons department. The outing, which started at 10:25 am and concluded at 6:25 pm, included a medical appointment at Kuala Lumpur Hospital for orthopaedic follow-up treatment, Friday prayers at Kajang prison's mosque, a Quran study session with an Islamic development department ustaz, and a counselling session with a prison psychology officer.\n\nAll of Najib's movements were for scheduled purposes, strictly adhering to the conditions of his house arrest and the terms of his conditional pardon. The pardon allows him to serve the remainder of his six-year sentence for the SRC International case under house arrest at Langgak Duta, Kuala Lumpur, with a scheduled release date of August 23, 2028. During this period, he is prohibited from engaging in political activities, making media statements, or appearing on social media, as well as leaving his designated premises without written permission. However, prison officers are permitted to accompany him to Friday prayers.",
