[KiniNews] The Pardons Board has decided to slash former prime minister Najib Abdul Razak’s jail time from 12 years to six.

This means Najib would be released from prison on Aug 23, 2028.

The board also slashed the fine slapped on the former premier from RM210 million to RM50 million.

“However, if he fails to pay up, the prison sentence on Najib will be added by a year, and he will be only released on Aug 23, 2029,” said the board.

Meanwhile, in a separate story, Najib's family has expressed disappointment that the former prime minister did not get a full pardon and immediate release from prison.

Najib’s daughter Nooryana Najwa said while the family appreciated the reduction of jail time from 12 years to six years after consideration by the Pardons Board, but they remain disappointed.

“Najib Razak and family maintain the stand and believe that he is not guilty,” she said.
