The Pahang Palace will not make any statement regarding the existence of the royal addendum purportedly issued by the 16th Yang di-Pertuan Agong as former prime minister Najib Abdul Razak submitted in his appeal application and the affidavit that his Mohd Nizar filed.
Pahang state legal adviser Saiful Edris Zainuddin in a statement today said the decision was made on the advice of Pahang Menteri Besar Wan Rosdy Wan Ismail to respect the court proceedings.
He said he had appeared before Pahang ruler Sultan Abdullah Sultan Ahmad Shah and informed the ruler regarding the matter.
"On the advice of the Pahang menteri besar and myself and to respect the court proceedings, the Pahang Palace will not make any statement regarding this matter as it could result in sub judice on the appeal case which has been brought before the Court of Appeal of Malaysia in Civil Appeal No W-01(M)-456-07/2024 which has been set for hearing on Jan 6, 2025, where the decision has not yet been made by the court,” he said.
Najib’s appeal relates to his claim of a royal addendum purportedly issued by the 16th Yang di-Pertuan Agong that would allow him to serve the remainder of his six-year prison sentence under house arrest, while Nizar's affidavit allegedly affirmed that the Pahang sultan told him about the existence of a royal addendum.
