Najib still to pay RM50m fine needed for house arrest, says AG

KOTA BHARU, Nov 1 — Former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak has yet to pay his RM50 million fine, according to the latest information received by the Attorney-General’s Chambers (AGC).

Attorney-General Tan Sri Mohd Dusuki Mokhtar said no specific deadline had been set for payment of the fine.

“So far, the information we have received indicates that Datuk Seri Najib has yet to fulfil the requirement as of now,” he told reporters after attending the launch of the Attorney-General’s Chambers MADANI Adopted School Programme at Sekolah Kebangsaan Pasir Hor here today.

Asked whether Najib would still have to serve his prison sentence as long as the fine remained unpaid, Mohd Dusuki confirmed that this was the case.

On Sept 18, the media reported that His Majesty Sultan Ibrahim, King of Malaysia, had granted Najib a conditional pardon, allowing him to serve the remainder of his sentence under house arrest until Aug 23, 2028.

The order was conditional upon Najib paying the RM50 million fine.

The Legal Affairs Division of the Prime Minister’s Department said the decision was made at the 64th Meeting of the Pardons Board for the Federal Territories of Kuala Lumpur, Labuan and Putrajaya, held at Istana Negara.

In July 2020, the Kuala Lumpur High Court sentenced Najib to 12 years’ imprisonment and fined him RM210 million after finding him guilty of misappropriating RM42 million belonging to SRC International Sdn Bhd. The sentence was subsequently upheld by the Court of Appeal in December 2021 and the Federal Court in August 2022.

However, at its 61st meeting on Jan 29, 2024, the Pardons Board decided to reduce the former Pekan MP’s prison sentence from 12 years to six years and the fine from RM210 million to RM50 million.

Meanwhile, on Dec 26 last year, the High Court sentenced the former prime minister to 15 years’ imprisonment and fined him RM11.4 billion after finding him guilty of four charges of abuse of power and 21 charges of money laundering involving RM2.3 billion in 1MDB funds.

He filed an appeal on Dec 29, 2025.

In a civil case, the High Court on March 31 ordered Najib to repay US$1.3 billion to SRC International after finding that he had breached his fiduciary duties, abused his position and misappropriated company funds for personal gain. However, enforcement of the payment order was stayed pending the outcome of his appeal.

Najib is also facing two other lawsuits, one filed by SRC International and another by Gandingan Mentari Sdn Bhd in 2021, as well as a US$5.64 billion civil suit filed by 1MDB and four of its subsidiaries. All remain before the courts. — Bernama

哥打巴鲁，11月1日讯——据总检察署（AGC）最新消息，前首相拿督斯里纳吉·拉扎克尚未缴纳5000万令吉的罚款。

总检察长丹斯里莫哈末杜苏基莫克塔尔表示，尚未设定缴纳罚款的具体期限。

“到目前为止，我们收到的信息表明，拿督斯里纳吉尚未满足这一要求，”他在今天出席总检察署 MADANI 领养学校计划在巴西霍尔国民小学举行的启动仪式后告诉记者。

当被问及只要罚款未缴纳，纳吉布是否仍需服刑时，莫哈末·杜苏基证实情况确实如此。

9月18日，媒体报道称，马来西亚国王苏丹易卜拉欣陛下给予纳吉布有条件赦免，允许他居家监禁至2028年8月23日，以服完剩余刑期。

该命令的生效条件是纳吉布支付5000万令吉的罚款。

首相署法律事务司表示，该决定是在吉隆坡、纳闽和布城联邦直辖区赦免委员会第64次会议上做出的，会议在国家皇宫举行。

2020年7月，吉隆坡高等法院判处纳吉布12年监禁，并处罚金2.1亿令吉，罪名是挪用SRC国际有限公司的4200万令吉。该判决随后分别于2021年12月和2022年8月得到上诉法院和联邦法院的维持。

然而，在 2024 年 1 月 29 日举行的第 61 次会议上，赦免委员会决定将这位前北根国会议员的刑期从 12 年减少到 6 年，罚款从 2.1 亿令吉减少到 5000 万令吉。

与此同时，去年 12 月 26 日，高等法院判处这位前首相 15 年监禁，并处以 114 亿令吉的罚款，此前法院认定他犯有四项滥用职权罪和 21 项洗钱罪，涉及 1MDB 基金 23 亿令吉。

他于 2025 年 12 月 29 日提出上诉。

3月31日，高等法院在民事诉讼中裁定纳吉布违反信托义务、滥用职权并挪用公司资金谋取私利，责令其向SRC国际公司偿还13亿美元。然而，由于纳吉布正在上诉，该付款令的执行被暂缓。

纳吉布还面临另外两起诉讼，一起是SRC国际公司于2021年提起的，另一起是Gandingan Mentari Sdn Bhd公司提起的；此外，他还面临1MDB及其四家子公司提起的56.4亿美元的民事诉讼。所有案件目前仍在审理中。——马新社
