KUALA LUMPUR: Barisan Nasional secretary-general Datuk Seri Dr Zambry Abdul Kadir criticised Puchong MP Yeo Bee Yin over her social media post on today’s court ruling on former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak‘s judicial review application.
Najib will remain in Kajang Prison to complete his jail sentence for misappropriating RM42 million from SRC International Sdn Bhd.
Zambry was commenting on a social media post by the DAP leader, who said it was “another reason to celebrate this year end”.
“Why the need to celebrate? Don’t celebrate the suffering of others.
“Life is a cycle. Remember your leaders are not infallible either,” said the higher education minister in a post shared on his Facebook page.
Judge Alice Loke earlier dismissed Najib’s application to enforce an alleged royal addendum that would have allowed him to serve the remainder of his sentence under house arrest.
She ruled that the alleged Addendum Order was invalid as it was made in excess of Article 42 of the Federal Constitution and did not comply with the mandatory procedures governing the exercise of the royal prerogative of mercy.
