Will Najib dare to sue Daily over new details on Scorpene and the Murder?

Will Our PM dare to Sue Daily over new details on Scorpene and the Murder ? The Phnom Penh Post published an article accusing Najib of receiving bribes and having met Altantuya Shaariibuu. A PKR leader wants the PM to take the Cambodian daily to court. PETALING JAYA: Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak has been urged to sue a Cambodian newspaper which published an article containing “new details” surrounding the controversial Scorpene deal and the murder of Mongolian national Altantuya Shaariibuu. PKR-linked NGO Solidariti Anak Muda Malaysia (SAMM) said Najib as head of state and Umno must haul The Phnom Penh Post to court over its Monday article to “clear the nation’s name”. "These disclosures clearly stated that Najib met Altantuya with (Abdul) Razak Baginda in Paris. Also revealed was the (alleged) USD160 million bribe that was split between Najib, Razak Baginda and other Umno leaders,” said SAMM chairman Badrul Hisham Shaharin. The PKR Rembau chief said aside from the paper, journalist Roger Mitton, who wrote the article “Submarine deal resurfaces to haunt Malaysia’s top man” must also be brought to court. His (Mitton’s) revelations embarrasses the nation while this corruption of the highest order involving the nation’s defence equipment begins to escalate. “It also invites terrible perception of a Muslim prime minister who, prior to this, has sworn that he has never known the translator who was killed without a motive,” he added. Najib cannot remain silent Stressing that Najib cannot remain silent, Badrul said: “The article by this Phnom Penh Post reporter contains very serious statements and is approved for viewing by the world.” “It will invite the perception that the Malaysian prime minister is being implicated in corruption and murder. Najib’s flip flop attitude when it comes to his status with Altantuya is now the big question,” he added. He said if Najib is unable to lead this country without credibility, then “SAMM will be glad if Najib resigns rather than further embarrassing the country.” “Perhaps Muhyiddin [Yassin] can be acting prime minister for the time being before the 13th general election. “This is no longer a domestic political issue but the image of the country at the international level. That which embarrasses the country is not the demonstrations of the people but the image of our country is affected because of a few leaders with criminal scandals who continue to lead the country, without having the courage to clean up their images,” he added. ‘Fell in love with Altantuya’ In the said article, Mitton wrote about how the recently started Paris judicial inquiry on the Scorpene submarines will cause more controversies to resurface to haunt Najib. Mitton also said he personally met Razak Baginda regularly during his posting as a journalist in Kuala Lumpur in the 90s and continued to meet him each time he visited Malaysia. However, Mitton said when Razak Baginda became “pointman” for the Scorpene purchase, he had already left KL and only met the latter again in Venice, Italy, at the 2002 Asean-Europe conference. “Razak [Baginda] attended only briefly and when I asked why he was rushing off, he said he was needed in Paris for an important defence deal,” he added. Mitton also narrated how Razak Baginda “fell in love” with Altantuya but tried to end the affair while the latter had clung on to him. “She would not have it, and in desperation, he spoke to Najib and the police were called in to keep her away,” he wrote. Mitton also made a new allegation that Altantuya was raped by the “aggressive special branch officers” before shooting her in the head and blowing up her remains with C4 explosives. The article drew a multitude of comments on the web, with it being shared repeatedly on Facebook and reposted in other blogs. Meanwhile, when contacted via e-mail, Mitton said his sources were normally accurate.

Suicide rate on the rise in Malaysia - Nation | The Star Online
We have got to do everything we can to make sure our society is working to help people at risk of suicide. Not to hide this issue, not to make the wrong judgments about suicide.
What makes suicide preventing so confounding is that even therapy often fails.

SHAME ON YOU, NAJIB: Are you telling the Chinese, Umno will use violence if BN loses GE-13
Najib is terribly threatened of his own loss of power this time that he began to speak of the evaporation of wealth of the businessmen if BN loses!
We are very encouraged to pressed on what we are doing in minimizing the frauds in GE 13. This is a sign that Putra Jaya is going to change hand.
We do see the tell tale sign of violence coming from the many disruption we have seen so far. We the people will not be lured into the trap of violence. We will pray. We will prepare ourselves to minimize the spread of violence in case the sore loser turns mad!

Top secret document from Malaysian Navy

    French 'bought' top secret document from M'sian Navy Susan Loone 8:22AM May 31, 2012   A highly-classified document - the Royal Malaysian Navy's evaluation of the Scorpene-class submarines to be purchased by the government - were allegedly "bought" by a French defence company. French lawyer Joseph Breham, who is acting on behalf of human rights NGO Suaram, revealed that the company paid 36 million euro (RM142 million) to Terasasi (Hong Kong) Ltd, ostensibly for "commercial engineering" works.Breham (right) said French investigative judges probing the case lodged by Suaram against Paris-owned shipmaker DCNS for alleged corruption inquired what those payments were for and demanded reports of financial transactions from the company. "They (the inquiry judges) were given information thqat is already available in the Internet and newspapers, except for this one document," Breham told a press conference in Bangkok yesterday. "It was a secret document by the Malaysian Navy - an evaluation for the order of the submarines, which is a highly confidential report," he told journalists at the Foreign Correspondents Club of Thailand. Breham, who based his expose on the French prosecution papers, said the act of "selling" top secret papers to a foreign country such as this is considered treason. In France, he stressed, it would be absolutely illegal to sell such reports as it could either be considered a breach of defence secrets or high treason. "It's treason because you are selling to a competitor or a foreign country what you think about a specific weapon, and your plan on how to use this specific weapon," replied Breham, when asked by a journalist if it was legal for an individual to sell such reports. "In France, if you release them (secret documents), you can be punished with up to 10 years in jail," said Breham, who is with Sherpa, a non-profit legal and human rights NGO based in Paris, which is representing Suaram in the legal action.Najib can be arrested by Interpol Hong Kong-based Terasasi had been accused of funnelling money through its accounts to Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak as "commissions" for the sale of the submarines. The submarines were purchased from the French company Thales International, also known as Thint Asia, in a deal inked in 2002 when Najib was deputy prime minister and defence minister. Thales is an off-shoot of French defence giant DCN, which later changed its name to DCNS, a company facing legal charges filed by Suaram in 2010. The case recently opened for hearing in the French court. Two Terasasi directors are Najib's close ally Abdul Razak Baginda and his father Abdul Malim Baginda. In 2006, Razak, together with two of Najib's former bodyguards were charged with the murder of Mongolian national Altantuya Shaariibuu, but the political analyst was acquitted without his defence being called.Najib (left), who has refused to comment on the matter, has also denied ever being involved in the scandal, but Breham has reiterated that the PM cannot avoid testifying in a French court if he is either subpoenaed or issued with a warrant of arrest by Interpol. Breham said it was possible that Thales decided to pay the money to obtain the classified documents so that it could better its bid for the project, and this meant "paying someone to commit an offence". The other possibility, he added, is that the French company had paid the commission to channel money to ruling party Umno or to high-ranking individuals in Malaysia, as already revealed in French prosecution papers. Breham said that this "demonstrated beyond a shadow of doubt" that the French counterparts knew the money was illegal and should not be paid, and that it would go to top Malaysian officials. He added that the money, whether legal or illegal, was paid to individuals "for no forseeable reasons" when it could have been put to better use. "To put it blunt and clearly - if the money had not been paid to high-ranking officials, it could have been used to allow Malaysians to pay less taxes for the same services or to have much more services for the same amount of taxes," suggested Breham. "The Malaysian taxpayers are the first casualties in this case," he added.Selling nation's secrets a crime Meanwhile, Subang parliamentarian R Sivarasa, who was at the Bangkok press conference, said the expose on the top secret document being sold to a foreign country could land a person in jail.Sivarasa (right), who is also a lawyer, said anyone familiar with the Malaysian legal system knows that the country has the toughest official secrets legislation. In terms of the broad scope of the law, he added, the breach of any official secret document or publication is punishable with a mandatory jail sentence. "These documents - as mentioned by Breham - fall into the highest category of official secret documents as it has implications for the security of the country," said the PKR leader. "Without any question, it is a criminal offence (to sell the documents to a foreign company). There have been people who went to jail for revealing far less innocous documents," he added. Sivarasa was in Bangkok together with Suaram director Cynthia Gabriel, lawyer Fadiah Nadwa Fikri and Breham to reveal 'damning details' surrounding the alleged Scorpene scandal. The press conference was held in Bangkok as Breham was unable to get a proper visa to enter Malaysia. His law partner, William Bourdon, was deported from Malaysia after he attended a fundraising dinner in Penang last year. The Bangkok event, attended by foreign journalists and Malaysian embassy officials (left) - who left immediately after the function - was hosted by regional human rights NGO Forum-Asia.       WE WANT PAKATAN RAKYAT NOT BECAUSE WE LOVE PAKATAN RAKYAT, WE JUST WANT A CHANGE!
