Altantuya murder: Summer sizzle from private eye Bala, MACC
Wong Choon Mei, Malaysia Chronicle
An explosive summer encounter in London with potentially far-reaching consequences can be expected if the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission does indeed carry out its plan to interview private investigator P Balasubramaniam sometime in the middle of next month.
“Sorry to be cynical but I’ll believe it when I see it. It is high time that the MACC walk its talk. It has been promising to meet Bala but has it gone to London yet? I mean this is not a new development, it should have already met and interviewed Bala,” PKR Youth Chief Shamsul Iskandar Akin told Malaysia Chronicle.
“It is also high time for the MACC to make public the status of their investigations. No less than Nazim Razak, the brother of our prime minister, has been identified by Bala as the one who gave him money to retract his statutory declaration and flee Malaysia. The MACC cannot close one eye just because the very top people are involved.”
Two men sentenced to hang
Bala’s sensational revelation about the Altantuya Shaariibuu murder case has made him the focal point of fresh investigations that may possibly alter the fate of two policemen sentenced to hang for her killing.
Both men were the former bodyguards of Prime Minister Najib Razak and his wife Rosmah Mansor. They have insisted they did not know Altantuya and could not have any motive to kill her. In his plea for mitigation, one of the men told the court that he was a mere pawn in a bigger game. However, he named no names or gave further details.
The Altanutya case is a complex tale of greed, international intrigue, sex and homicide. The beautiful 28-year old Mongolian was a translator, who could speak four languages including Russian. Since her 2006 murder, she has been tagged as a modern-day Mata Hari by the foreign press for her role as a go-between in a multi-billion dollar deal between the Malaysian defense ministry and French defense firms DCNS and Thales.
Najib, Rosmah and his close associate Razak Baginda have been implicated in her killing. Altantuya was believed to have been shot in the head and blown up with military-grade explosives after threatening to expose Baginda because he did not pay her a share of the RM570 million kickback obtained from DCNS and Thales.
Currently, there is a separate investigation being conducted by the French police who are probing the corruption angle and if French authorities were involved in inducing Najib – who was then the defense minister – to order two Scorpene submarines worth RM6.7 billion from DCNS and Thales.
Najib and Rosmah have denied ever knowing Altantuya. Baginda, who admitted being her lover, was controversially acquitted of having abetted the two cops in her killing.
Statements taken from Nazim, Deepak
Bala was the private investigator hired by Baginda to keep an eye on Altantuya and to persuade her to return to Mongolia. He was among those who last saw her outside Baginda’s house before she was taken away in a car by the two cops. On that night, Bala also saw seated in a Proton car parked nearby to Baginda’s house Nasir Safar, a long-time special aide to Najib.
He has gone on record with this information and has also stated several more pieces of information that drags the Malaysian premier deeper into the conspiracy. One of the more shocking revelations was that she had been Najib’s mistress and it was he who had introduced her to Baginda, who later also became her lover.
Other shocking revelations were that she was pregnant and that she had pleaded with the cops not to kill her.
However, less than 24 hours after making the statutory declaration and announcing it at a press conference, Bala retracted it and went missing until late last year.
When he resurfaced, Bala told of how Nazim and Deepak Jaikishan, a businessman close to Rosmah, had threatened him and offered him money to leave Malaysia.
According a Berita Harian news report, the MACC will send three officers to meet Bala at a venue in London to be agreed upon by both sides. The news report also said that the MACC had already taken statements from both Nazim and Deepak.

Najib grilled on Scorpene missiles cost, Altantuya tryst in S'pore
Wong Choon Mei, Malaysia Chronicle
As the D-date nears for an explosive London meeting between the MACC and private investigator P Balasubramaniam, opposition leaders are redoubling efforts to get Prime Minister Najib Razak to come clean on the purchase of two Scorpene submarines and the murder of Mongolian translator Altantuya Shaariibuu, who had acted as a go-between in the exorbitantly-priced deal.
PKR supreme council member Badrul Hisham Shaharin fired the first salvo, calling on Home Minister Hishamuddin Hussein to confirm if latest news reports were true the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission would finally send three officers to London to take down a statement from Bala, a private eye hired by Najib's close associate Razak Baginda.
Badrul also accused the prime minister of buckling to pressure from the Singapore government over a multi-billion ringgit railway-land swap that he said disadvantaged Malaysia. Was Najib being 'blackmailed' and Malaysia put to ransom? Badrul urged his colleagues in Parliament to raise the issue.
“Balasubramaniam has said in a sworn statement that Najib was the one who introduced Altanutya as Aminah to Razak Baginda at a diamond show in Singapore. Does this mean that the Singapore authorities have information or photographs that could incriminate Najib? Can this be why our PM is so ready to agree to Singapore’s terms in the railway-land deal,” Badrul told Malaysia Chronicle.
Despite swirling speculation that Altantuya was his mistress before he passed her onto Baginda, Najib has maintained his innocence and sworn on the Quran that he had never met her. Baginda has however admitted a sexual relationship with Altantuya.
Meanwhile, PKR Member of Parliament for Batu Tian Chua sought to table an emergency motion to debate the cost of acquiring two types of missiles for the submarines purchased by Najib when he was defense minister in 2002.
According to Tian, there was a possible inflation of at least 20 percent in the final purchase price for the 40 SM 39 Exocet Block 2 missiles and 30 Black Shark torpedoes. He said Malaysian lawmakers needed to probe the reason for the overpricing and debate if it was a form of kickback and to whom.
A separate amount of 114 million euros was also paid to Perimekar, an obscure firm with links to Baginda, but was booked as fees for co-ordination and support services. Despite public outrage and accusations that this was tantamount to commission, the government has refused to begin any probe for possible corruption.
“The total market price costs of the two types of missiles amounted to 182.8 million euros. But the Malaysian government’s cost of purchase is 219.265 million euros. This means that the government had overpaid 20 per cent or 36.465 million euros compared to the market price,” Tian told Parliament on Monday.
Tian also asked why until now the missiles, which were due to be delivered between 2008 and 2009, have not arrived. “The warranty for the submarines expired in May 2010. After May, there is no warranty but the missiles are not here yet,” he said.
The Altantuya murder and the Scorpenes acquisition are intertwined. The 28-year old Altantuya was murdered in 2006 after she allegedly failed to collect a commission of US$500,000 from Baginda for her role in helping to close the deal.
Balasubramaniam, whom Baginda hired to watch over Altantuya, was on the scene outside Baginda’s home when she was taken away by two former bodyguards of Najib’s and his wife Rosmah Mansor’s. The two bodyguards have been found guilty of her murder and sentenced to hang.
Bala fled the country after revealing sensational information linking Najib, Rosmah and Baginda to Altantuya and the Scorpenes purchase. He resurfaced late last year and offered to help MACC investigators if they agreed to meet in London.
According to online news portal Malaysiakini, Bala's lawyer Americk Singh Sidhu said they were ready to meet the MACC between July 5 and 7.
There is also a separate probe being conducted by French police on the submarines deal. Investigations by Parisian authorities are expected to finish within the next 2 to 3 months before being escalated back to prosecutors to decide if they will take it to court.
The total costs for both submarines excluding annual maintenance came up to 1.34 billion euros or about RM6.7 billion. The sum broke down to 969 million euros for the two submarines, 219 million euros for missiles, 38 million euros for miscellaneous equipment and 114 million euros for coordination and support services.

Buy subs for RM8b, then torpedo subsidies
Tue, 22 Jun 2010 18:25
E-mail Print
By Syed Jaymal Zahiid
KUALA LUMPUR: While voters have been spooked by the prospect of bankruptcy if subsidies remain, the government however went on a RM8 billion shopping spree for two French submarines.
The disclosure was made by Defence Minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi in a written reply to Batu PKR MP Tian Chua who asked how much it cost to procure the Scorpene submarines.
The first contract with French and Spanish manufacturers DNC and Navantia on the purchase of the two submarines including the Intergrated Logistic Support (ILS) was worth €970 million.
The second contract with Perimekar Sdn Bhd for coordination, support and training for the Royal Malaysian Navy submarine project in Cherborough and Brest in France and Cartagena, Spain, was worth €120 million.
Perimekar is allegedly owned by the wife of Abdul Razak Baginda, a close friend of Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak, who was tried and acquitted in the murder of Mongolian Altantuya Shaaribuu.
Altantuya was supposedly the interpreter in the deal and Najib was the defence minister then.
Discrepancy in figures
The government also signed a contract with DCN worth €37.5 million for support and test equipment while spending €300 million on SM-39 and Black Shark Heavyweight torpedoes which will be handed over in stages until 2013.
This does not include the six-year maintenance of the submarines which Tian Chua said would cost the government RM600 million, a figure quoted by DCN.
However, the Batu MP said the government quoted a different figure - maintenance fee would cost RM270 million a year.
"Why is there a difference here?" asked Tian Chua at a press conference in Parliament.
He also questioned the need to conduct the purchase in Euro currency which he claimed was 10 percent more if the transaction was made in ringgit.
"We spent close to RM8 billion on two submarines. And this is in the context of the government wanting to cut subsidies (on essential goods)," he said.
French more concerned
Meanwhile, PKR vice-president R Sivarasa said the French authorities have decided to probe DCN on the submarine deal with Malaysia together with another similar case in Pakistan.
It was reported that a French prosecution team had raided DCN's office recently in its effort to unravel the alleged scandal involving bribery and kickbacks worth hundreds of millions.
The Subang MP said the Malaysian government paled in comparison with the French government in terms of battling graft.
"It seems that the French are more concerned with Malaysian money than our government," he said.

Mongolian Translator's Murder Case Still Alive
Written by Our Correspondent
Wednesday, 30 June 2010
All that's left of Altantuya
Mongolian government says it will fund a civil suit against Malaysia and Altantuya's onetime lover
The Mongolian government has agreed to put up RM60,000 (US$18,525) to fund a civil suit in Kuala Lumpur on behalf of the family of translator Altantuya Shaariibuu against the Malaysian government and the murdered woman's onetime lover, Abdul Razak Baginda, a former close friend of Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak. Two of Najib's former bodyguards were convicted of the gruesome 2006 murder.
Although details are sketchy, remittance order issues were submitted to the Mongolian Cabinet during June meetings, a source in Ulan Bataar told Asia Sentinel. Some of the remittance orders were classified as secret, the source said. The case has strained relations between Malaysia and Mongolia, with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs saying earlier that the government was carefully observing the trial of the two convicted murderers and had sent four letters through official channels asking that the case be prosecuted free of political influence.
Altantuya's death is at the center of a much larger scandal stemming from the billion-dollar purchase by the Malaysian government of two French submarines and the lease of a third in a deal engineered by Najib when he was defense minister. The purchase was routed through a company owned by Abdul Razak Baginda in a transaction that netted the company €114 million in “commission.”
French lawyers are investigating the case over allegations that large sums were kicked back to top French politicians. For two years, Parisian prosecutors have been investigating other allegations involving senior French political figures up to former French President Francois Mitterrand and the sales of submarines and other weaponry to governments all over the world. French news reports have said the prosecutors have backed away from some of the most serious charges out of concern for the political fallout.
As Asia Sentinel reported on April 16, the allegations relate to one of France's biggest defense conglomerates, the state-owned shipbuilder DCN, which merged with the French electronics company Thales in 2005 to become a dominant force in the European defense industry. DCN's subsidiary Armaris is the manufacturer of Scorpene-class diesel submarines sold to India, Pakistan and Malaysia among other countries. All of the contracts, according to lawyers acting for Suaram, a Malaysian human rights NGO, are said to be suspect. In April, Joseph Breham, one of the lawyers, flew to Kuala Lumpur to interview witnesses in the case. Altantuya told witnesses at her trial that she had been involved as a translator in the submarine matter and that she had been promised US$500,000 for her role.
After a marathon trial involving 75 witnesses, a court in the Malaysian suburb of Shah Alam exonerated Razak Baginda of involvement in her murder without his having to put on a defense. He almost immediately left the country for England. The two convicted bodyguards, Chief Inspector Azilah Hadri and Corporal Sirul Azhar Umar, were members of an elite Malaysian police unit that normally exists to protect diplomats. Although one of the two told investigators they had been offered RM100,000 to kill the woman, the court did not attempt to find out who had offered them the money. Najib has repeatedly denied knowing her although a complex web of circumstantial evidence ties the two together. He has threatened to sue anyone who attempts to link him or his wife, Rosmah Mansour, to the case.
P Balasubramaniam, a private investigator and retired policeman hired by Abdul Razak to keep the jilted Altantuya away from him, filed a statutory declaration in a Kuala Lumpur court in 2007 alleging that Najib not only knew the murdered woman but was formerly her lover and introduced her to Abdul Razak to get rid of her because it would be unseemly to have a mistress when, as expected, he took over as prime minister. Balasubramaniam was intimidated into recanting his statement and promptly disappeared. He resurfaced to reiterate the charges and is scheduled to give a press conference on July 7 at 11 am in the Holiday Villa in London to give further details. Altantuya's father, Setev Shaariibuu, a university professor, has made it a longtime crusade to attempt to find out what really happened to his daughter. At one point he attempted to meet Najib at Malaysia's parliament building but was rebuffed. He is seeking RM100 million from the Malaysian government and Razak Baginda in the civil suit. However, he later told reporters he didn't have the money for the security bond, saying his efforts to get help from the Mongolian government had failed.
Karpal Singh, a Democratic Action Party leader and lawyer representing the Shaariibuu family, told the news portal Malaysian Insider that the RM60,000 had been transferred to his firm's account on Monday and that it would be deposited with the Shah Alam High Court, where the trial of the two bodyguards had taken place, on June 30. He had earlier said he would help Shaariibuu get the money from the opposition Pakatan Rakyat coalition if necessary.
According to Malaysian Insider, the government and Abdul Razak said Shaariibuu should bear the cost of the civil suit. The court initially fixed the security bond at RM1.25 million, but lowered it to RM30,00 per party in March after Shaariibuu protested. Shaariibuu, the story said, is also required to pay Abdul Razak and the federal government a further sum of RM5,000 each for the cost of the court application.

Betol ya .... KS ini masih bermasalah dan belum dapat menyelam ?
KD Tunku Abdul Rahman still defective.........
KD Tunku Abdul Rahman remains at the Teluk Sepanggar naval base in Sabah as problems have again resulted in the submarine being docked. The Malay Mail was informed by defence industry sources that the unspecified problems were detected after the submarine completed its tropical water trials last month. A routine maintenance check later revealed the problems. Since then, the submarine has remained at the naval base unfixed.
It is learnt although the vessel obtained its Initial Operational Capability (IOC), it may take longer to be declared fully operational.
However, the arrival of the second Perdana Menteri-class submarine, KD Tun Razak, on July 2, was a godsend for the crew of its sister ship, KD Tunku Abdul Rahman. The crew is expected to take over the second submarine during its mandatory tropical water trial. Sources said this was necessary as the KD Tunku Abdul Rahman crew may lose their submariners rating if they remained on land.
In February, The Paper That Cares reported that KD Tunku Abdul Rahman suffered a technical defect that prevented it from diving for three months. The submarine started tropical water trials on Feb 20. KD Tunku Abdul Rahman was commissioned early last year after undergoing a two-year trial period in France.
The Royal Malaysian Navy procured the two submarines for RM3.4 billion in 2002 from French/Spanish shipbuilders, DCNS and Navantia. - Marhalim Abas.
