Might as well release Najib, says KJ after Zahid's DNAA


PETALING JAYA: The government might as well release Datuk Seri Najib Razak from jail, Khairy Jamaluddin has said in response to Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi being granted to a discharge not amounting to an acquittal (DNAA) for 47 graft charges related to Yayasan Akalbudi funds.

The former Umno Youth chief said freeing the former prime minister affectionately known by supporters as "Bossku" would bring more added value to the unity government in which both Pakatan Harapan and Barisan Nasional were components in.
