Rosmah Mansor draws applause at Umno assembly as Najib’s clemency bid looms

Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor attended Umno's general assembly amid her husband, former Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak's, bid for clemency from his 12-year prison sentence for misappropriating RM42 million from SRC International.

Umno President Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi expressed hope for positive developments regarding Najib's application, while applause from delegates indicated significant support.

The Federal Territories Pardons Board is expected to discuss Najib's case, with possibilities including serving his remaining sentence under house arrest.

However, it remains uncertain if an immediate decision will be reached.

KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 11 — Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor, the wife of former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak, attended Umno’s general assembly today amid his bid for clemency.

Umno president Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi then invited Rosmah to stand as delegates in Dewan Merdeka applauded and showed their appreciation.

“Hopefully there will be the best news today, God willing,” Zahid said when opening his policy speech, drawing thunderous applause from the hall.

Rosmah was seated next to Zahid’s wife, Datin Seri Hamidah Khamis.

The Federal Territories Pardons Board is expected to convene this morning.

FMT previously reported that former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak’s application is expected to be among the primary matters tabled before the board during this week’s sitting.

It remains unclear whether the board will arrive at an immediate decision or limit the session to preliminary deliberations.

A separate source indicated that the possibility of allowing Najib to serve the remainder of his prison term under house arrest may be broached, though it is uncertain whether that option will be formally deliberated during the morning meeting.

Yesterday, Zahid said he was hoping for the “best” outcome today for Najib’s latest application.

Najib, 72, was convicted of misappropriating RM42 million belonging to SRC International and sentenced to 12 years in prison, along with a RM210 million fine. He began serving his sentence at Kajang Prison on Aug 23, 2022.

In 2024, the FT Pardons Board halved his prison term to six years and reduced the fine to RM50 million.

However, Najib and his lawyers subsequently insisted that the partial pardon came with a royal addendum for him to serve out his remaining time at home, eventually suing to have this granted.

On Dec 22 last year, High Court judge Alice Loke dismissed Najib’s application to serve the remainder of his reduced sentence under house arrest. Najib withdrew his appeal against the decision in April this year.

拿汀斯里罗斯玛出席巫统大会，她的丈夫、前首相拿督斯里纳吉因挪用 SRC 国际公司 4200 万令吉而被判 12 年监禁，请求宽大处理。

巫统主席拿督斯里阿末扎希哈米迪对纳吉的申请有积极的进展表示希望，而代表们的掌声则表明了对他的大力支持。

联邦直辖区赦免委员会预计将讨论纳吉布的案件，可能的方案包括允许他居家监禁服完剩余刑期。

然而，目前尚不确定能否立即做出决定。

吉隆坡，9月11日 - 前首相拿督斯里纳吉的妻子拿汀斯里罗斯玛今天出席巫统大会，寻求宽大处理。

巫统主席拿督斯里艾哈迈德扎希德哈米迪随后邀请罗斯玛起立，代表们在下议院鼓掌并表示赞赏。

“但愿今天能传来最好的消息，如果上帝保佑的话，”扎希德在发表政策演讲时说道，赢得了会场雷鸣般的掌声。

罗斯玛坐在阿末扎希的妻子拿汀斯里哈米达卡米斯旁边。

联邦直辖区赦免委员会预计将于今天上午召开会议。

FMT此前报道称，前首相拿督斯里纳吉·拉扎克的申请预计将是本周董事会会议上提交的主要事项之一。

目前尚不清楚董事会是否会立即做出决定，还是将会议限制在初步审议范围内。

另有消息人士指出，可能会讨论允许纳吉布在家服完剩余刑期的可能性，但目前尚不确定上午的会议是否会正式讨论这一选项。

昨天，扎希德表示，他希望纳吉布今天的最新申请能取得“最好”的结果。

现年72岁的纳吉布因挪用SRC国际公司4200万令吉的资金而被判处12年监禁，并处罚金2.1亿令吉。他于2022年8月23日开始在加影监狱服刑。

2024 年，《金融时报》赦免委员会将他的刑期减半至六年，并将罚款减少至 5000 万令吉。

然而，纳吉布和他的律师随后坚持认为，部分赦免附带一项皇家附加条款，允许他回家服完剩余刑期，最终提起诉讼要求批准该条款。

去年12月22日，高等法院法官艾丽斯·洛克驳回了纳吉布要求以居家监禁方式服完剩余减刑刑期的申请。纳吉布于今年4月撤回了对该裁决的上诉。
