KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 10 — Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor has expressed gratitude following the return of her husband, former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak, to their residence in Jalan Langgak Duta here today after a court order allowing him to serve the remainder of his sentence under house detention. 

“Alhamdulillah,” Rosmah said briefly when contacted by Berita Harian. 

She said she was awaiting Najib’s arrival at their Taman Duta home, where he will serve the remainder of his prison sentence under house detention. 

Earlier today, the High Court issued a fresh order allowing Najib to serve the remainder of his reduced six-year prison term under house detention until Aug 23, 2028, with immediate effect. 

A survey of the area found the atmosphere outside the residence calm, with security arrangements in place as preparations were made for Najib’s return home. 

Najib’s house detention follows recent legal developments concerning the implementation of the remainder of his sentence.
