Pengakuan Pejabat Peguam Negara selepas 527 hari bahawa wujudnya Adendum Diraja – yang membenarkan bekas Perdana Menteri Najib Razak menjalani baki hukuman penjaranya di bawah tahanan rumah – telah mencetuskan kemarahan ramai. Peguam-peguam kanan memberi amaran bahawa isu ini boleh menjadi liabiliti besar kepada kerajaan Madani, menimbulkan persepsi bahawa mereka cuba menyembunyikan sesuatu.
The Attorney General’s belated admission after 527 days that a Royal Addendum exists – decreeing former Prime Minister Najib Razak should serve his sentence under house arrest – has sparked outrage, with senior lawyers warning that this debacle is a ticking time bomb for the Madani government, creating the impression it has something to hide.
Former Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak has proven, based on strong circumstantial evidence, that Agong's Decree on House Arrest exists and that he merits benefit of the doubt on the matter!
Under the original 12 year jail sentence imposed by the High Court on the disputed RM42m SRC International conviction, former Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak would be free on 23 August 2026, however by Agong's allegedly flawed Decree -- unsafe in law -- he may be freed, as per letter from Pardons' Board, only on 23 August 2028!
UN Review on arbitrary detention can only be based on fact-finding that former Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak was jailed, unrepresented, and that conviction on the RM42m SRC International case wasn't perfected in law for perfection in law. There's case for compensation!
BN (Barisan Nasional) and PH (Pakatan Harapan) remain strange bedfellows, the latter involved in Trial by Media which put former Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak in jail after Debate with Anwar Ibrahim!
Agong could have granted Najib release by Decree, from arbitrary detention, based on miscarriage of justice arising from Tainted Ruling in the High Court on 28 July 2020, but the latest statement from the Pardon Board has created more discord
The imminent release of former Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak from arbitrary jail blows hot and cold in the media, and has gone viral in the social media, and all walks of life in Malaysia and abroad!
Former Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak's family can file habeas corpus application and/or lodge Petition with Conference of Rulers following Appeal with Agong on miscarriage of justice and thereby help Malaysia avoid real harm!
