The High Court today is set to hear the Malaysian Bar ’s bid to challenge the Federal Territories Pardons Board ’s decision to reduce Datuk Seri Najib Razak’s sentence from his SRC International conviction, alleging bias towards the ex-prime minister. — Picture By Raymond ManuelThe Malaysian Bar will justify challenging the Federal Territories Pardons Board ’s decision to halve Datuk Seri Najib Razak’s prison sentence and reduce the fine in his SRC International case conviction.
In February, the FTPB announced that Najib’s initial 12-year prison term has been halved to six years and a reduction of his RM210 million fine to RM50 million. At the Malaysian Bar’s 78th annual general meeting back in March, members of the legal professional body for Peninsular Malaysia in a near-unanimous vote adopted the resolution for the Bar Council to file the court challenge.
