KUALA LUMPUR
Puteri Umno chief Nurul Amal Mohd Fauzi has urged the party’s wing not to give up hope that former Umno president Najib Razak will be released from prison.

She also reminded the former prime minister’s daughter, Nooryana Najwa, that Puteri Umno would remain by her family’s side.

We should never give up praying for Allah’s help for the release of ‘Bossku’ (Najib),
 she told delegates during the winding-up speech at the Puteri Umno general assembly at the World Trade Centre Kuala Lumpur.

To Yana (Nooryana), remember that Puteri Umno is always with you.

On Feb 2, the Federal Territories Pardons Board (FTPB) announced that Najib’s prison sentence had been reduced from 12 years to six and his fine reduced from RM210 million to RM50 million.

Najib, 70, is currently serving his sentence at Kajang prison and is to be released on Aug 23, 2028.

Najib, who has three other criminal cases, began his initial 12-year prison term on Aug 23, 2022 following the Federal Court’s dismissal of his final appeal in the SRC International case.

He was tried before Justice Nazlan Ghazali (now a Court of Appeal judge) in the Kuala Lumpur High Court on seven counts of abuse of power, money laundering and criminal breach of trust involving RM42 million in funds belonging to SRC, a former subsidiary of 1MDB.

After the FTPB announced its decision, Nooryana said she was disappointed the board did not give her father a full pardon.
