Umno’s royal pardon request for Najib won’t hurt relations with PH
Umno’s request for the Yang di-Pertuan Agong to consider pardoning its former president Najib Razak will not harm its alliance with Pakatan Harapan (PH) and other components in the unity government, Khaled Nordin said.
The Umno vice-president said the party merely wanted to show its appreciation and gratitude towards the former prime minister for the nine years in power before Barisan Nasional’s fall in the 2018 general election, the Malay Mail reported.
“The relationship with PH in the unity government is not an issue, (the matter is) up to the Agong; this is Umno sending the pardon (request) to the Agong,” he was quoted as saying.
Khaled also reiterated the statement by the party’s secretary-general Asyraf Wajdi Dusuki that the Supreme Council would appeal for a royal pardon from the King for Najib as the party believed he had been denied justice.
Najib began serving his 12-year prison sentence on August 23, 2022 after he was found guilty of criminal breach of trust, power abuse and money laundering in relation to SRC’s RM42 million.
Earlier this week, Najib said he would seek to use the dissenting judgment by Federal Court judge Abdul Rahman Sebli to support his application for a royal pardon.
On March 31, Rahman released a 78-page minority judgment, which stated that Najib had no legal representation when a Federal Court panel heard and dismissed his appeal in the SRC International corruption case.
Rahman, who is the Chief Judge of Sabah and Sarawak, was a member of a five-panel Federal Court bench which heard Najib’s application for a review of the court’s decision to dismiss his appeal in the SRC case. The other four judges found no grounds to free Najib. FMT
