"So far he will be in Kajang," he told reporters when met at the High Court lobby here today.
Lutfi added the 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) trial today also saw the first time Najib met his family members since his sentence began on Tuesday.
"Najib's meeting with his family is only in court," he said.
Najib walked out of the Court Complex here at 4.20pm and get on a black sport utility vehicle (SUV).
He managed to wave to a small group of supporters who gathered at the court compound to show their support.
