While delivering a speech at a Perikatan Nasional campaign event at the Bakri PAS headquarters, Hadi said that under Islamic principles, the party that has a right to grant a pardon is a victim’s family members, not the Pardons Board.
The Pardons Board should disclose the reasons behind its decision to grant ex-prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak a reduced prison sentence and fine, said Bukit Gelugor MP Ramkarpal Singh.
