PETALING JAYA: The Pardons Board should provide the public with a written reason for its decision related to former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak, says civil society organisation G25.

In a statement, the group expressed shock at the decision of the Pardons Board to grant Najib a 50% reduction of his 12-year sentence of imprisonment and a substantial reduction of his fine from RM210mil to RM50mil.
