  "account": "Former Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak was convicted six years ago for embezzling RM42 million from SRC International, according to reports. Petaling Jaya: The Pan-Malaysian Islamic Party (PAS) is urging the government to explain why the Federal Territories Appeal Tribunal (LPWP) has delayed Najib's request for forgiveness at the next meeting. Deputy Chief, Takiyuddin Hassan, believes the delay will only occur if there is a demand from members of the LPWP, and thus, the party demands the government clarify this issue to the public as it is a matter of public importance that cannot be concealed from the people, he stated. The tribunal is classified under the Official Secrets Act. On Friday, the Prime Minister's Department said Yang di-Pertuan Agong Sultan Ibrahim agreed to delay Najib's request until the next meeting. The body, overseen by the Yang di-Pertuan Agong, is expected to consider Najib's second forgiveness request. At 72, Najib was fined RM210 million and sentenced to 12 years in prison, which he is serving at Kajang Prison since August 2022. The LPWP then reduced his prison sentence to six years and the fine to RM50 million. In December of last year, Najib was also convicted for misuse of power and embezzlement of corrupt funds, involving more than RM2 billion, related to 1MDB. He was sentenced to 15 years in prison and fined RM11.38 billion. Najib is currently appealing that verdict.",
