ANWAR Ibrahim will be freed on Tuesday, said his daughter, Nurul Izzah Anwar, today.

Channel NewsAsia reported her as saying the PKR de facto leader will receive a full pardon.

It was reported that Dr Mahathir Mohamad said the Agong had conveyed his views on the matter after the prime minister’s swearing-in ceremony at Istana Negara on Thursday night.

A pardon will allow Anwar to participate in politics once more.

He is currently at the Cheras Rehabilitation Hospital, where he is recuperating after a surgery.

Anwar is serving a five-year jail sentence following a sodomy conviction, and was due to be released on June 8. – May 12, 2018.
