KAJANG, Nov 10 — A grey sport utility vehicle (SUV) believed to be carrying former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak was seen leaving the Kajang Prison Complex at about 2.40pm today, escorted by several prison security vehicles.

The New Straits Times (NST) reported that the convoy comprised five vehicles, but its destination was not immediately known.

The departure came as Najib’s lawyers were scheduled to attend a court mention over the dispute surrounding an order allowing him to serve the remainder of his prison sentence in the SRC International case under house arrest.

The matter was listed before High Court judge Datuk Aslam Zainuddin at the Kuala Lumpur High Court Criminal Court 5 at 2.30pm today.

The Attorney-General’s Chambers (AGC) has applied to review the November 6 discharge order and obtain a fresh order consistent with the conditional pardon granted to Najib by the Yang di-Pertuan Agong, Sultan Ibrahim, on September 18.

Attorney-General Tan Sri Mohd Dusuki Mokhtar reportedly confirmed the application to NST.
