Malaysia’s imprisoned former Prime Minister Najib Razak has won an appeal to pursue his bid to serve his remaining corruption sentence under house arrest

Former Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak stepped up efforts to serve the rest of his prison sentence for corruption at home, submitting to a court in Putrajaya what he says is a copy of a royal decree permitting him to do so.

By Danial Azhar KUALA LUMPUR - Malaysia's appeals court on Monday granted a bid by jailed ex-premier Najib Razak to see a document he said should allow him to serve his sentence at home, in a rare win for a disgraced former leader at the heart of the country's biggest scandal.

Public anger, accusations of treason hit Anwar’s administration over handling of Najib’s potential release into house arrest.

She said the sixth Prime Minister was convicted in not only one or two courts, but across all three levels of the judiciary: the High Court, the Court of Appeal and the Federal Court.
