Hannah Yeoh, A-G arrive at Istana Negara ahead of Pardons Board meeting [WATCH]
KUALA LUMPUR: Minister in the Prime Minister's Department (Federal Territories) Hannah Yeoh and Attorney-General Tan Sri Mohd Dusuki Mokhtar arrived at Istana Negara this morning ahead of the Federal Territories Pardons Board meeting.
Yeoh's vehicle entered the palace grounds at 7.48am, followed shortly by a vehicle believed to be carrying the A-G.
Both are members of the board, which is chaired by His Majesty Sultan Ibrahim, King of Malaysia.
The meeting comes amid reports that the board will reconvene today with a single item on the agenda regarding former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak's pardon application.
The application was deferred at the 63rd Federal Territories Pardons Board meeting on Sept 11, with consideration postponed to a subsequent meeting.
Under Article 42 of the Federal Constitution, the Pardons Board for the Federal Territories of Kuala Lumpur, Labuan and Putrajaya comprises the Yang di-Pertuan Agong and not more than three other members appointed by His Majesty.
Last night, Yeoh denied that her signature appeared on a document that went viral concerning Najib's house arrest issue.
No official announcement has been made on the outcome of today's meeting as of this morning.
