Anwar was pardoned, so why not Najib? FMTNews
Relief after Sam Ke Ting was freed by the Court of Appeal in the modified bicycle or “basikal lajak” case, after six long and arduous years.
That is probably why we see so many cases where different offenders in similarly serious cases receive radically differing sentences. Umno’s current president, a deputy prime minister with a stunning number of pending corruption cases himself, Ahmad Zahid Hamidi, ironically says his party will follow all existing legal procedures before making an appeal to the Pardons Board for consideration of the matter.
Incidentally, many non-Umno ministers in the current unity government have distanced themselves from the decision by their government-partner to ask for a royal pardon for Najib. They just keep repeating that they will leave it to the wisdom of our King.
