Malaysia's King Allows Jailed Ex-PM Najib to Serve House Arrest

Malaysia's king has permitted former Prime Minister Najib Razak to serve the remainder of his corruption sentence under house arrest. Najib was jailed in the 1MDB scandal, a massive financial fraud case. The decision places Malaysia in uncharted legal territory and poses a political challenge for Prime Minister Anwar. It is unclear how the house arrest will be implemented or what it means for Najib's sentence.
