Google Maps searches for “prison mansion” now point to Najib Razak’s Langgak Duta home amid his house arrest.
PETALING JAYA: A Google Maps search for the term “prison mansion” has produced an unexpected result, directing users to the Langgak Duta residence of former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak.
The property also appears on the platform under a separate listing bearing the name “Malaysian Prisons Department (Duta Branch)”, with its 360-degree Street View feature displaying what appears to be Najib’s residence.
However, the identity of those responsible for creating the listings and the circumstances surrounding their appearance on Google Maps remain unknown.
The unusual discovery comes as Najib is serving the remainder of his prison sentence in the SRC International Sdn Bhd case under house arrest at the Kuala Lumpur property.
His lawyer, Tan Sri Muhammad Shafee Abdullah, confirmed the arrangement on Oct 14 following proceedings at the Kuala Lumpur High Court.
Shafee said Najib had received an official order from the Yang di-Pertuan Agong, accompanied by a document outlining the terms and conditions governing his house arrest.
However, he declined to disclose the contents of the royal order or provide further details about the arrangements.
