Najib Razak, Malaysia’s corrupt former prime minister, may be

back hometo serve the rest of his prison sentence, but that does not mean he will be living in comfort with wife Rosmah Mansor and the rest of his family, a member of his party has confirmed.

Najib returned to his house on Jalan Langgak Duta at about 9.30pm on Tuesday, after the High Court cleared the way for his release from jail.

The start of his house arrest also marked the end of Anthony Loke’s stint as transport minister. Loke, who heads the Democratic Action Party chief, had vowed to resign the moment “Najib steps into his house” – and did just that on Tuesday.
