> Malaysia's Attorney General's Chambers is seeking a temporary suspension of a change in former Prime Minister Najib Razak's detention status, citing complex questions about interpreting his conditional royal pardon. The call came hours after reports that Najib left prison following UMNO's payment of his fine of more than US$12 million.
