Inconsistencies in Burmaa's testimony

LETTER | What Altantuya's cousin testified in 2007 and 2019 does not add up.

Altantuya wanted to meet Razak Baginda over son's treatment, father claims

Father saw photo of people Altantuya wanted to meet in M'sia

Cousin: Altantuya wanted money from Razak Baginda for unpaid work

I never met Altantuya! Najib accuses her cousin of lying

In Malaysia, commercially available explosives, under strict licence control, are usually dynamite. C4 , because of its very high explosive power, and ability to be massaged to fit into any shape is a potential terrorist or military weapon. Therefore, very difficult for any person to obtain outside of military or police circles.

Truenews (below) has taught me a new lesson in his words "who else besides the PM then can order the use of C4? C4 is normally used to bring down a multi storey building". I did not realise Malaysia's PM has been and presumably still is directly responsible for bringing down multi storey buildings. Last I heard there are many construction enterprises around the world which possess C4 for their work. I guess I have been wrong after Truenews' information

All things being equal, who else besides the PM then can order the use of C4? C4 is normally used to bring down a multi storey building. So the ex PM must be the one who abetted in the Altantuyaa’s murder or if not the murderer. He did the act becoz she knew too much and came for her share of the commission of the French submarine deal. Do you wonder why ppl call him a kleptomaniac. For everything he was very corrupted and on the take for all the projects of Msia at the rakyat’s expense. He’s into lying ++ and everyone knows that for a fact. I hope justice will prevail for Altantuyaa’s family. How can a person take someone’s life and then denying knowing the victim?

Prudent27/Jan/2019 at 7:49:33pm, I hope and pray so... May truth and justice prevail quickly! Justice has been denied to Altantuya! God must surely step in! Amen!!

Mkini, sub-judice?

Fernz28/Jan/2019 at 4:30:55am, but P.I. Bala died an untimely death...which smells fishy...

lee choon kheng12:30 PM, 28 Jan 2019

There's high probability that Najib knew Altantuya, based on P. I. Bala's statutory declaration.

kay koh04:30 AM, 27 Jan 2019

there is another policeman-murderer in our jail, who was even more senior to Sirul. Let's ask him

Maggie Cheong01:33 AM, 27 Jan 2019

Yes, Prudent the authentic Paris photo existed. Note: the past tense. But before it disappeared, it had been seen by a few people. The central figure in that photo cannot tell any tales now, but others may. The'weakest' link is Razak Baginda, who might spill the beans. However, the 'rumour' that he was at the murder scene, might discourage him from 'talking' or maybe not? Ask Sirul if this is true or not, lah! Poor RB, he's not sure now, who to trust now.

Teoh Sunny11:00 PM, 27 Jan 2019

I have a weird feeling that the original and/or other photographs of the three together will turn up sooner or later, perhaps at the murder trial of MO1 and Baginda - a conviction in which is the ultimate objective!

Teng Chang Khim07:49 PM, 27 Jan 2019

In 2007 Najib was the DPM, a powerful govt official. Burmaa's cousin Altantuya had been murdered and that murder was alleged to be connected to Baginda, as well as Najib and Rosmah, although only the UTK policemen and Baginda were originally charged (Baginda was released) Therefore, fear and self-preservation could be one possible reason Burmaa used the anonymous description of Najib as "a govt official."This is analogous to the US DOJ referring to Najib, the then PM, as "MO1" Trivial comments by this K Temoc or Teemoc.

Maggie Cheong06:39 PM, 27 Jan 2019

(b) Razak Baginda was the only one that Altantuya knew in Malaysia. Huh? According to the testimony of Burmaa, she was told by Altantuya that Najib Razak and Razak Baginda who were in the picture were best friends, has the same names but not brothers. Where did it say that Altantuya only knew Razak Baginda? The one who only knew Razak Baginda but not Najib Razak was Burmaa herself. That was why she asked who was the other person - the high ranking government official (Najib Razak). There was no inconsistency in Burmaa's statement except for the 'mistake' in her word - she asked Altuntuya who they were when actually she was asking who was the other person with Razak Baginda, which she clarified that in her testimony in the present court proceeding. Probably the thing now, without the original photograph in question, it can be just a hearsay. Perhaps PI Mr. Ang or Altuntuya's father can corroborate it but the star evident would be the original photograph, if it is still available or a copy of it - perhaps in the possession of the family or of Mr. Ang.

Kayteemoc, thanks for bringing up the 2007 testimony. I see a very close correlation between the 2007 and 2019 testimonies. It is now more convincing, thanks to Kayteemoc, that it was Najib who was with Altantuya in the photo. I hope the plaintif's lawyer will use this information so kindly brought out by Kayteemoc.

LIM MOH CHEONG05:19 PM, 27 Jan 2019

Ah hoe, you can call yourself ah Hoe but definitely not a chinese or the most is a running dog.

Ong Thean Haw05:05 PM, 27 Jan 2019

Gerard Lourdesamy, why would Najib take the stand when he was and is not involved at all?

Maggie Cheong04:05 PM, 27 Jan 2019

Then Najib should take the stand in the civil suit.

yapchanpeng03:09 PM, 27 Jan 2019

It needs to be exposed that this anonymous blogger is a consistent Najib promoter and defender, and has been relentlessly attacking Mahathir, Lim Kit Siang, Anwar Ibrahim , Lim Guan Eng from before GE14 until now. He is no supporter of reform or New Malaysia. Nay, a throwback to the dirty old regime.
