TEMPO.CO, Kuala Lumpur - Jailed Malaysian leader Anwar Ibrahim will be released on Tuesday, the veteran politician`s daughter Nurul Izzah told Reuters on Saturday, May 12.


Newly elected Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad said this week that all efforts were being made to release Anwar, a former foe, immediately and secure a full royal pardon from the country's monarch.

"Yes," Nurul said in a text message when asked to confirm whether her father was being released on Tuesday.

Anwar was jailed in 2015 for charges of sodomy, a charge he and his supporters say was politically motivated.
