PUTRAJAYA - The Federal Court today dismissed a preliminary objection by Datuk Seri Najib Razak against the Attorney-General’s (AG) appeal concerning the existence of an additional document allegedly permitting the former prime minister to serve the remainder of his prison sentence under house arrest.

A three-member bench, chaired by Chief Judge of Malaya Tan Sri Hasnah Mohammed Hashim, in a unanimous decision, said that the seven questions of law proposed by the AG are justiciable and can be reviewed by the court.

The other judges on the bench are Federal Court judges Datuk Zabariah Mohd Yusof and Datuk Hanipah Farikullah.

The panel then fixed tomorrow to hear the AG's appeal.

On April 28, the Federal Court granted leave to the AG to appeal over Najib's additional document. - BERNAMA
