PETALING JAYA: The Prisons Dept has denied allegations that former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Abdul Razak was placed in a house within the prison grounds.
In a Facebook post yesterday, the Prisons Department said the claim was not true.
“This is fake information. Stop spreading it,“ the department wrote.
The two-part message that went viral claims that these houses are “meant for senior prison officers” and cited the source of information as “a good friend whose cousin is a senior prison officer at Kajang”.
Najib is currently serving a 12-year sentence in Kajang Prison following the Federal Court’s decision on Aug 23 to uphold his corruption conviction involving RM42mil of SRC International funds.
