- 2 years ago
Former prime minister Najib Abdul Razak is being treated at the Cheras Rehabilitation Hospital (CRH), the Prison Department confirmed today.
The confirmation comes just days after an anonymous social media message claimed that plans are afoot to move Najib (codenamed “Merpati” in the message) to CRH, allegedly to allow more access to visitors and VVIP facilities. The message also claimed that Najib's cell in the Kajang Prison complex has been renovated.
However, the Prison Department assured Najib will be sent back to the Kajang prison to serve his jail sentence, once he is given medical clearance by specialists at CRH or the Kuala Lumpur Hospital (HKL).
