Najib undergoes dental treatment following prison release, Transport Minister confirms

PUTRAJAYA — Datuk Seri Najib Razak remains away from his residence following his exit from Kajang Prison, with authorities confirming he is attending to planned dental work, according to Transport Minister Anthony Loke.

Loke disclosed the information regarding the former prime minister's whereabouts while addressing queries about Najib's movements after leaving the correctional facility. The scheduled dental appointment represents the immediate priority following his prison departure.

Najib, who has been incarcerated at Kajang Prison, was released from the facility as part of standard procedures. His legal team and associates have maintained that all activities following his release remain within established protocols.

The former premier's situation continues to draw public attention given his high profile and the ongoing legal matters surrounding his conviction in connection with the 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) scandal. His current schedule and future plans remain subject to the conditions governing his imprisonment status.

No further details regarding the timeframe for Najib's return home or the duration of his dental treatment have been disclosed at this time.
