“Lobbying for a pardon?”: Netizens mock Najib over visit to Agong’s Hari Raya-do

Netizen iHammy retorted: “Kesalahan boleh diampunkan, tapi bukan erti akibat kesalahan itu dibatalkan! Ampun 100X pun akibat kesalahan mesti dihadapi – masuk penjara!!!.

(His guilt can be pardoned but that does not mean he did not commit the wrong)

In July 28, 2020, Najib was sentenced to 12 years’ jail and fined RM210 mil after he was found guilty of all seven charges related to the misappropriation of RM42 mil from SRC International Sdn Bhd.

The Court of Appeal upheld the decision on Dec 8 last year and admonished the former prime minister for arguing that he had only acted on “national interest”.

“There is no national interest here, only national embarrassment,” Justice Datuk Abdul Karim Abdul Jalil had stated.

Becoming Zimbabwe

On that note, user Schmuelsons Reid said that Najib is probably the only convicted criminal in the world who is still walking free shamelessly as if he had done nothing wrong.

“Satu-satunya tertuduh yg bebas ke sana kemari tanpa segan dan seolah tidak bersalah. Beginilah jatuhnya standard keadilan di negara kita. Tak lama lagi apa yg kita lihat di Zimbabwe, Nigeria, West Africa dan lain2 negara Africa yg mundur dan korup, akan berlaku di Malaysia.”
