Home Minister Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution Ismail says he will address all questions regarding the legal implementation and execution of Datuk Seri Najib Razak’s house arrest during tomorrow’s Dewan Rakyat sitting.
KUALA LUMPUR: Questions surrounding the implementation of house arrest for former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak are expected to be addressed when Home Minister Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution Ismail provides an explanation in Parliament tomorrow.
According to a report by the New Straits Times, Saifuddin said he would address all questions raised on the matter during the Dewan Rakyat sitting.
“I will answer all those questions in Parliament tomorrow,” he said when asked to comment on the issue.
Last night, a convoy carrying Najib arrived at his residence in Jalan Langgak Duta here at 9.27pm.
Najib was travelling in a grey Proton X70 sports utility vehicle (SUV), which took him to the residence to serve the remainder of his prison sentence under house arrest.
Earlier, High Court judge Datuk Aslam Zainuddin issued a fresh release order allowing the former Umno president to serve the remainder of his six-year prison sentence in the SRC International Sdn Bhd case under house arrest until Aug 23, 2028.
The order also fully revoked the previous release order issued on Nov 6 and replaced it with a new one, in accordance with the Conditional Pardon Order granted by Yang di-Pertuan Agong Sultan Ibrahim on Sept 18.
The development brings an end to the uncertainty surrounding the implementation of Najib’s house arrest, which had previously been temporarily suspended by the Attorney-General’s Chambers (AGC).
