KUALA LUMPUR: Several vehicles believed to be carrying family members of former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak arrived at his residence in Langgak Duta here tonight.
The vehicles arrived at 7.55pm, about an hour after a Prisons Department vehicle was seen arriving at the residence.
The arrivals come after the High Court today ordered Najib to serve the remainder of his six-year prison sentence in the SRC International Sdn Bhd case under house arrest at the residence, with immediate effect.
High Court judge Datuk Aslam Zainuddin made the ruling after setting aside an order issued against Najib by the High Court Criminal Registry on Nov 6.
Under the order, Najib will remain under house arrest until Aug 23, 2028, before returning to Kajang Prison on Aug 24, 2028, to serve his separate prison sentence in connection with the 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) case.
The Home Ministry has said it is ready to implement the court's decision.
Home Minister Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution Ismail said the ministry respected the royal pardon granted by the Yang di-Pertuan Agong, Sultan Ibrahim, and would ensure that all decisions concerning detention and sentence enforcement were carried out in accordance with the law and valid court orders.
