BEIJING, June 4 — Datuk Seri Najib Razak has again said he “had nothing to do with” Altantuya Shaariibuu, laughing off the federal opposition’s attempts to link him to the murdered Mongolian model whose killers now face the gallows.
“There’s no evidence,” Najib told the Associated Press in Beijing where he is visiting in the footsteps of his father, second prime minister Tun Abdul Razak Hussein who opened ties with communist China.
“They’ve not offered any evidence at all ... I have sworn in the name of God, of Allah, that I had nothing to do with her and I can’t go beyond that.”
The prime minister added what he described as a “tongue in cheek comment,” saying the fact that Shaariibuu was staying at “a two-star run down hotel” at the time of her death was further indication that he had not been involved with her.
“If she was my girlfriend, she will be totally insulted if I put her (there),” he said with a laugh.
Opposition leaders have repeatedly tried to link Najib to Shaariibuu’s death. The 28-year-old Mongolian model and translator was having an affair with his close friend and aide Abdul Razak Baginda when she was shot on Oct. 19, 2006. Her body was then blown up in a forest outside Kuala Lumpur, and only fragments were found.
The opposition had claimed in various election campaigns and in cyberspace that his close association with Abdul Razak makes him suspect.
Abdul Razak has acknowledged the affair but was acquitted last October of abetting the slaying. Elite special services policemen Chief Inspector Azilah Hadri and Sirul Azhar Umar were sentenced to death in April for her murder, though the trial never established what their motive was.
They have appealed.
Controversial blogger and Malaysia Today news portal editor Raja Petra Kamarudin is on the run and a fugitive after skipping bail in several cases incluidng criminal defamation, sedition and Internal Security Act (ISA) related to his postings linking Najib and his wife Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor to the murder.
Police had also banned any mention of Altantuya in several recent by-elections.

fact2: she was murdered.
fact 3: she was murdered by special police personnel whose normal duties involve providing security for malaysia's most important people, including pm and dpm.
fact 4: allegations were made that najib's adc musa safri had given some instructions to the policemen who were later charged and convicted of murdering the mongolian woman.
fact 4: no attempt was made by both prosecution and defence to produce musa safri in court.
fact 5: the police and court authorities were very kind to the two policemen to allow them to wear customised spiderman-type masks for their court appearances.
fact 6; body of murdered mongolian woman had been blown to bits with c4 explosives apparently not normally accessible to the police.
fact 7: altatantuya's and her friends' entry records were mysteriously eliminated from immigration computers.
fact 8: najib did not deny revelations involving sms exchanges between himself and controversial lawyer shafee abdullah, contents of which give rise to questions and suspicions of najib's involvement if not in the murder certainly in cover up and attempts to influence the course of justice.
fact 9: najib has sworn on the quran denying any association with altantuya.
fact 10: najib has never called or supported any call for a broad enquiry and investigation into the case which gave rise to many troubling issues and points of detail.
we could go on listing facts all day and najib can deny for a whole life time. until he steps forward and allow an independent enquiry be set up look at this whole altantuya episode and those troubling details, the malaysian public will always have this doubt about their prime minister. this state of affairs is neither fair to the pm nor to the rakyat.

2 Special Branch policemen hv no reasonable motive to blow up a Mongolia lady that they only came to know through Najiz Political aide Abdul Razak Baginda, using Military explosive C4 from Special Branch inventory !!!
How could such extraordinary Murder took place without a Powerful hands behind !!!
The brutal killings took place when the men is still DPM, imaging what he could do when he is now PM !!!

1) what is the motive harboured by the two policemen? (if no motive, one has to either pledge insane or the case can be thrown out)
2) the victim only knew najib & baginda razak in malaysia. she even lodged a police report stating that if anything tragic happened to her, baginda razak should be the prime suspect. had the investigation established she had other enemy other than the two? (the two policemen did not even know her as confessed in the court)
3) why there was a systematic effort to prevent the victim's cousin to lodge a police report at the first place?
4) why was there no investigation on the deletion of immigration entry record?
5) who from the defence ministry authorize the military explosive to be taken out? from which arsenal? if no authorization, why was there no further investigation? (the implication is a serious threat to the national security as there could be more explosives or weapons stolen)
6) why were the prosecutors of baginda razak acted like defence lawyers through out the case, unwilling to appeal even under tremendous pressure from the public?
7) where is bala? why seek interpol help to locate RPK who merely cite case & not bala who could produce evidents in court?
8) why no response to the claim by foreign press that there have evidence that a meeting between najib & the victim did took place in paris?
9) why persecute anyone who mention the case & order the mainstream media to blank out the name of baginda razak & altantuya?
10) what viable explanation can be offered to de-link the shadowy procurement of submariner with the victim other than just brushing it off?

Two policemen have been convicted of the murder, but the prosecution could'nt prove these two had a motive for the murder as she is a stranger to both of them. That means there is a perpetrator out there some where walking free. Even her ex boyfriend who had an affair with her has gone free.
Its truly a MYSTERY! It is left to the people to make their own conclusions.
If we cant bring the real culprit to justice, then lets leave it to God to punish him, and its our duty as human beings to forgive and not pass judgement.

Mr PM, allegations aside, you are a disgrace to the nation to crack such a tasteless joke about a dead person. You can deny the allegations without taking cheap shots at the dead, can you? How do you think the parents feel about what you said?
What kind of impression are you leaving on the international stage for our country?

If I were a prime Minister and someone (in this case not one - BUT MANY) have insinuated/suggested that I had anything with "THAT MONGOLIAN Woman's death, I will not leave any stone unturned and make sure that I will sue each and everyone of those who dared to sully my name, My HONOR and my Stature as a PM for their accusations - Just like that Lee Family in that small insignificant island just a few hundred yards south of my country. These shit (accusations etc) is NO LAUGHING MATTER - errrr, then why am I laughing and making stupid asides about 2 star hotels and such???? I cannot accept the fact that I have to live the rest of my life being called the PM with a lot of shit in my arse, PM with a lot of baggage - Not during my very short stint as the the most tainted PM, I cannot go to meet my maker and that Woman when my maker calls me without cleaning my name of this stigma. But what to do ah??? Smile lor! Snigger like a litle schoolbuy caught with his hands in his pocket playing with his marbles when he has no marbles in his pocket lor! Laugh lor! After all, my mentor did say, Malaysians have a very short memory. I hope they forget soon lor!

Everyone knows that the court proceeding were controlled both by the DPP and the Sitting judge, why the need if Najib is not at all involved?
Why are so many questions not even asked in court, much less answered in public?
Why didn't the AG appeal against the court freeing Razak? This is another suspicion.
In the minds and hearts of most Malaysians, you are somehow involved in her case, either directly or indirect and that means you are guilty.

written by Johan SSM @ Khun Pana, June 05, 2009
It is the government hiding and wiping out evidence.
Mysterious deletion of immigration data , Bala and his entire family vanishes into thin air , changes of judges , changes of defending lawyers , changes of DPP , etc. As there are more to it.
The truth is still hidden . meanwhile najib is a free man until then.
But , lets us see as for how long he be able to hide that the fact the late Altantuya was involves in armament equipment purchases made by MinDef.
The leaked SMS between najib and Baginda's lawyer also nailed najib for good.
We must appeal to individuals out there , those especially from France and Singapore to provide just 1 single important snapshot . Thats the missing link.

The police in Malaysia banned that name.
In Beijing, that name can be mentioned in the question.
Mr Najib, did you kill Altantuyah???
Najib answered: There is no evidence.
That was not the question.
The question is Did you have anything is do with Altantuyah?
The first question should be Do you know her personally?
Some people will not put their girl friend in a 2-star hotel, that would be an insult.
Was Altantuyah your girl friend?
To some people, they will put her in a forest and blow her to pieces with C4.
Anyway, Najib has just implied that Abdul Razak Baginda should not had done that to his mistress. Abdul had admitted that Altantuyah was his mistress and to put her in a 2-star hotel.....hmmmm, that to Najib was an insult lah.
BTW, The religious authorities did not arrest Abdul Razak for sexual proximity as khalwat and zina are sins punishable in the Islamic law (Abdul Razak is a Malay Muslim), instead he was left off the hooks and now in England studying. Reporters in England cannot find him for an interview. What happened to him? To study in England was just another pre-text to escape and disappear.

First Altantuya came for her commission that was promise and hard earned money but was murdered at the end of the commission she pursue.
Second her legal entry to Mlaysia was erase ( ???????? who did that, under whose instruction and so on), the Imigration department (IT - boss shall be question how didi the record went missing? The IT boss is accountable for but the court and judge did nothing to investigate, see how Singapore caught the bank employees despite the records were all erase, experts recover all those info's
Third, what happen to the logistic coy in the police force, inventory of the c4, how did it went out, who approve, who sign and what was the last inventory figure, but nothing was ask in the court or the judge.
Come on the whole world is laughing at Najis and we as Malaysian look so stupid despite having all necessary hi tech facilities to solve such accountability issues.
Najis is not recognized internationally, we as Malaysian has responsibility to correct the mistake and change our country image, otherwise it will be too late.
