KUANTAN: All parties must respect the decision by the Pardon's Board to commute former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak's sentence and refrain from making comments on the matter, including on social media, says Fahmi Fadzil.
The Communications Minister said Article 42(1) of the Federal Constitution stipulates that the Yang di-Pertuan Agong has the power to decide on the matter and that the decision cannot be questioned in court.
