THE ALTANTUYAA MURDER CASE WILL NEVER COME TO REST
On Aug 23, 2013, the Court of Appeal allowed the appeal of Azilah and Sirul, freeing them from the charges.
My comments at the bottom.
This is Murray Hunter's take on the Altantuya murder at My Sin Chew click here.
My comments:
My view is an RCI just will not happen under madani. It will certainly embarass Najib or worse. Which will embarass UMNO which will embarass the PH regime.
If an RCI digs out the truth Najib may never leave jail. Even the reappearance of Sirul Azhar's story in Social Media the past few days may also have killed any hopes for a royal pardon that Najib maybe trying to engineer.
Do not forget that TEN YEARS AGO on Aug 23, 2013 BOTH Sirul Azhar and Azilah Hadri were acquitted by the Appeals Court.
On Aug 23, 2013, the Court of Appeal allowed the appeal of Azilah and Sirul, freeing them from the charges.
The Court of Appeal is not stupid. They know what they are saying.
The Court of Appeal gave two reasons:
1. Najib's aide de camp DSP Musa Safri was not called as a witness. Musa Safri was a key witness.
2. The prosecution could not establish motive. Why would Sirul and Azilah want to murder Altantuyaa?
Why was DSP Musa Safri a key witness? Because from the Court proceedings it became clear that he was communicating with the parties involved.
- DSP Musa told me to help Razak: Azilah
- January 15, 2009
- SHAH ALAM, 15 Jan 2009: Chief Inspector Azilah Hadri told the High Court here that higher-ranking police officer DSP Musa Safri had asked him to help political analyst Abdul Razak Abdullah Baginda.
- Musa gave him Razak’s handphone number and told him to contact Razak to get details of the problem and the assistance he required, he said.
- “DSP Musa told me that his friend, namely Encik Razak, had a problem because someone had threatened him.
So it has already been presented at the Shah Alam High Court that DSP Musa Safri who was Najib's aide de camp was the person who put Azilah in touch with Razak Baginda.
The question that must be put to DSP Musa Safri in a proper Court of Law is this : Exactly HOW MANY TIMES (if any) were you in telephone contact with Azilah, with Razak, with Sirul (if any), with Najib (if any), with Rosmah (if any) throughout the relevant period of time say 24 hours before Altantuya was murdered and 24 hours after she was murdered?
- Why were there telephone calls (if any)?
- What did you discuss?
- Were you in telephone contact with any of these people during the night of the murder?
- Again why were there telephone calls (if any)?
- What did you discuss?
I think these would be basic questions any prosecutor should ask.
Plus I am positive the Police Investigators would have taken the mobile phones of ALL the relevant persons in this case and checked ALL their call records on the night of Altantuya's murder.
The Police investigation would know who called who, at what time, for how long the call lasted etc.
But unfortunately DSP Musa Safri was not called as a witness in the trial. Therefore his telephone call records were never presented in Court. So we wont know.
The second reason the Court of Appeal acquitted both Azilah and Sirul was because the prosecution could not prove the motive for Azilah and Sirul to murder Altantuyaa. It was established in Court that Sirul (and Azilah) had never met Altantuya before. They did not know her. Until today the motive was never proven.
There was rumour that both of them had been paid money or promised money to kill Altantuyaa - which would make them hired assassins. In which case they should be found guilty. But that point was never established in Court. And if true, that would open another huge can of worms. Who hired them? Why?
But for a fact Sirul Azhar, Azilah Hadri and DSP Musa Safri were Policemen. Policemen not only take orders but more importantly Policemen do not move without receiving orders. In other words Policemen do not act on their own. They always wait to be given orders.
I dont think there will be an RCI into the Altantuyaa murder - not under this present set of rogues running the show.
But neither will this murder case go away either.
