Najib Under House Arrest Amid 1MDB Fallout | Malaysia News
Former PM Najib Razak is now under house arrest after a conditional pardon that slashes his jail time, with the rest of his sentence ending August 23, 2028 — provided he pays a 50 million ringgit fine. The move, approved by the King and Pardons Board, follows earlier reductions in his sentence and fine. While some say Pakatan Harapan won’t lose support, citing Anwar Ibrahim’s respect for royal authority and anti-corruption stance, critics warn it could be a political misstep — especially given the scale of the 1MDB scandal, which fueled public outrage and helped topple the previous government in 2018.
