The secretary to political analyst Abdul Razak Baginda told the Shah Alam High Court today that her only source of information about Chief Inspector Azilah Hadri allegedly murdering Altantuya Shaariibuu was through her boss.

Siti Aisyah Mohd Azlan, 24, testifying at Day 13 of the murder trial revealed this during cross examination by Azilah's lawyer, Hazman Ahmad.

"I agree that my knowledge about Azilah then was based on what Abdul Razak told me. I did not hear Azilah tell Abdul Razak that he was instructed by him to kill Amina (Altantuya)," she said.

Siti Aisyah said she did not know what was discussed between Azilah and Abdul Razak when they met at the latter's Malaysian Strategic Research Centre office in Bangunan Lembaga Getah Asli (LGAM), Jalan Ampang, Kuala Lumpur on Oct 18 last year.

Yesterday, she told the court that she was informed by her boss that the Mongolian woman was killed by Azilah.

Hazman who objected to three of her statements yesterday which incriminated his client, later told the court that he would be submitting on his objections after the prosecution's case.

Good employer, humorous person

Meanwhile, during cross examination by Abdul Razak's counsel Wong Kian Kheong, Siti Aisyah disclosed more details about Altantuya's first visit to Abdul Razak's office in August last year.

"Abdul Razak came out of his office and met Amina outside the office in front of the entrance by the transparent glass doors.

"I heard Razak telling her, 'I have got nothing to do with you. If you want to do anything, go ahead'," she told the court.

She also told Wong that Altantuya had made many calls to Abdul Razak before and after her three visits to his office in October last year.

"Amina would call the office and say she's calling from Korea," she told the packed courtroom.

Asked to describe Abdul Razak's character, Siti Aisyah said Abdul Razak is a good employer and a humourous person.

The 10th prosecution witness who took the stand after Siti Aisyah was Mohamad Zaini Zainordin, 21, the chief security guard at LGAM - the building in Kuala Lumpur where Abdul Razak's office is located.

Zaini, who has been working at the building for two years, was asked by deputy public prosecutor Hanim Rashid to read a visitor's sign-in details when entering the building on Oct 18 last year.

Zaini then proceeded to read out Azilah's details which stated the 'time in' as 9:54am and 'time out' as 11.05am.

However, he said it was not his shift then and did not write the entry down.

Photographers 'crossing the line'

Earlier in the morning, Hazman had asked judge Mohd Zaki Md Yasin to make a ruling on the scuffle that took place between police officers and photographers yesterday.

Yesterday evening when the three accused were leaving the building, the police had formed a human chain to prevent photographers from taking pictures of them.

Hazman alleged that a photographer had snatched the jacket used to shield Azilah's face. "They (the photographers) have crossed the line," he said.

He said special treatment is given to Abdul Razak's wife, Mazlinda Makhzan to escort her husband from the truck to the court - a picture that photographers chase for.

This, he argued, has attracted unwanted attention to the other two accused.

He said it is unfair that his client is to be handcuffed behind his back because he will be unable to use his hands to shield his face.

Mohd Zaki said he could not make a ruling on matters that occur outside his court but will put forward a request for relevant parties to help in allowing the accused to be handcuffed in front.

The court adjourned for lunch at 12:30pm. The hearing resumed shortly after 2:15pm and the next witness called is Special Action Squad (UTK) deputy chief Mastor Mohd Ariff.

Azilah, 30, and Corporal Sirul Azhar Umar, 35, are charged with the murder of the Mongolian national while Abdul Razak, 47, is charged with abetting them. Both the policemen are members of the UTK.

Prosecutors say Abdul Razak planned her killing and ordered two police officers - members of a special unit charged with protecting the country's leaders - to carry it out.

Altantuya was killed by "probable blast-related" injuries in a clearing in Shah Alam after she was driven away from outside Abdul Razak's house in mid-October.

All three face the death penalty if found guilty.
