A Thai restaurant owner in Malaysia revealed that a Thai woman, who disappeared on March 8, has been arrested by Malaysian police. She is reportedly safe but will be unable to contact her family until her interrogation is complete.

PETALING JAYA: All parties should respect the Pardons Board's decision to commute Datuk Seri Najib Razak's sentence, Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim says again.

Citing Article 113 of the Prisons Regulations 2000, Anwar said the Pardons Board must provide views and consider the rights of any detainee or prisoner. "The process is based on the procedure at a meeting I attended last Dec 9, which involved considering the grounds for appeal, including their (the prisoner's, life journey, family, life in prison, services and contributions, whether to the family or the community and in the case of Datuk Najib, to the country. All of these factors are taken into consideration."
