Does Najib look like a jailbird serving a 12-year jail sentence?

KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 29, 2024: The disgraced and shameless Najib Abdul Razak is serving a 12-year jail sentence for his role and mismanagement of 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) funds.

However, whenever he is escorted by police to attend court, does he look like a prisoner or a jailbird?

Najib is always dressed in a full lounge suit with tie (not the infamous orange attire worn by detainees and prisoners), and no handcuffs.

In Malaysia, prisoners also have different status and given special treatment by the authorities.

And, Najib has also submitted his appeal to the Pardon’s Board for his freedom.

God forbid him to be freed just like that, after contributing significantly to the country’s RM1.5 billion national debt.

And, no one seems to know when the board is meeting or whether it has met?

PETALING JAYA: Former prime minister Najib Razak’s lawyer says he does not have any information about a purported Pardons Board meeting today.

“No, nobody knows,” said Shafee Abdullah in a Berita Harian report when asked about the meeting.

Earlier today, Utusan Malaysia reported that Najib’s jail term would be discussed at today’s meeting, which will be the last chaired by the Yang di-Pertuan Agong, Sultan Abdullah Sultan Ahmad Shah before his reign ends tomorrow.

On Jan 10, Shafee dismissed a Channel NewsAsia (CNA) report that said the Pardons Board will meet this month to discuss Najib’s application for a royal pardon.

He stressed that the board’s sittings are considered top secret, with the identities of its variable members and dates of meetings not publicised.

On July 28, 2020, Najib was convicted by Justice Nazlan Ghazali, then a High Court judge, for abuse of power, money laundering and criminal breach of trust in the SRC International case, involving funds amounting to RM42 million.

His appeal to the Court of Appeal was dismissed on Dec 8, 2021.

Najib began his 12-year prison term on Aug 23, 2022, immediately following the Federal Court’s dismissal of his final appeal.

On March 23, the apex court refused his application for leave to have its decision in the appeal reviewed.

The jailbird has submitted to the Pardon’s Board for clemency and freedom. The board’s hearing is reported to be soon.

Our stand is jailbird Najib does not deserve our sympathy nor be pardoned.

Perhaps, sympathy may be due if he shows remorse and help the Government recover as much of the loot as possible.
