On August 13, 2025, Malaysia’s Federal Court dismissed the Attorney-General’s (AG) appeal to prevent former Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak from pursuing a judicial review concerning an alleged royal addendum. Najib claims this addendum, issued by the former King in January 2024, entitles him to serve the remainder of his prison sentence under house arrest. The AG conceded the document’s existence but questioned its admissibility as evidence. The court remitted the case to the High Court for a full hearing on its merits, scheduled for August 18.

This decision allows Najib to continue his legal challenge, which could significantly impact his current six-year sentence related to the 1MDB scandal. The case has garnered considerable public and political attention, especially as Najib faces other ongoing trials.
