The arrangements for Najib Razak to serve the remainder of his SRC sentence under house arrest have exposed complex questions about the execution of prison sentences and the legal framework governing home detention. His residence has been gazetted as a prison and the RM50 million fine has been paid, but questions remain.

On this episode of #ConsiderThis Melisa Idris speaks with Rania Aljunied, Director of Lawyers for Liberty (LFL).
