  "account": "Hannah Yeoh, a Cabinet Minister in the Federal Territory, has denied signing any order related to the house arrest of former Prime Minister Najib Razak, as reported on social media. The Perdana Putra's Office stated that the Committee for Mercy has not yet scheduled a hearing concerning the matter. Yeoh clarified that she never signed an order for house arrest as it was circulating on social media. The Committee for Mercy remains yet to hold a hearing. She requested that the false document be stopped from spreading, according to the statement. It is also mentioned that the reporter had filed a report to the authorities about the dissemination of the misleading document. Earlier, a letter signed by Hannah Yeoh was circulated, which appeared in her statement when the Najib Razak pardon issue resurfaced as a topic of discussion following the media's report that the Perdana Putra's Committee for Mercy would reconvene only a week after the matter was postponed at the meeting held on September 11th. The report further alleged that the aforementioned meeting had only one item on its agenda, namely Najib Razak's pardon request. On September 11th, the Perdana Putra's Committee for Mercy postponed the request for Najib Razak's pardon to the upcoming meeting.",
