MCA: Release Kok, RPK from ISA

KUALA LUMPUR: The MCA has called for Seputeh MP Teresa Kok and Malaysia Today editor Raja Petra Kamaruddin to be released from their arrests under the Internal Security Act (ISA).

MCA president Datuk Seri Ong Ka Ting said Kok and Raja Petra should be investigated under other laws and be charged in court if there was evidence.

“To prevent possible future abuse of the ISA, the MCA central committee calls for a comprehensive review of the ISA so that it will apply strictly to cases relating to terrorism and subversive elements.

“There should also be a mechanism for checks and balances in the use of the ISA,” he said after chairing a six-hour meeting at Wisma MCA here on Tuesday.

Ong also said that the arrest of Sin Chew Daily reporter Tan Hoon Cheng for 18 hours under the ISA was totally uncalled for and the explanation given for her detention was unacceptable.

Apa lagi Dollah Badawi dan Syed Botak nak kata?

Kapal yang dikemudinya hampir karam.

Dengar kata anak lelaki kesayangan Dollah, Kamaluddin Abdullah telahpun mencairkan kesemua aset-asetnya. Betul ke?

Kalau betul, kemana suami Nori nak lari?

KeAdilan bantah tindakan tahan individu tanpa bicara

Saya mengecam penahanan aktivis sosial dan penulis blog terkenal, Raja Petra Kamaruddin, di bawah undang-undang kuku besi ISA. Dengan menggunakan ISA untuk menghalang proses perubahan di Malaysia, kerajaan Barisan Nasional yang diketuai UMNO mengesahkan ianya telah tidak berpijak di atas sokongan rakyat dan sudah tidak mampu memimpin Malaysia dengan adil dan demokratik.

Saya menegaskan Raja Petra mesti dibebaskan segera dan sebarang tuduhan yang dibuat oleh Kementerian Hal Ehwal dalam Negeri mestilah diselesaikan dengan segera mungkin menuruti proses undang-undang. Raja Petra seharusnya dibenarkan untuk berjumpa peguam dan anggota keluarganya mestilah dibenarkan untuk berjumpa beliau sewaktu dalam tahanan.

Penahanan Raja Petra dan surat tunjuk sebab yang dikeluarkan hari ini kepada Sin Chew Daily, The Sun dan Suara Keadilan di samping halangan terdahulu terhadap laman web politik yang terkenal, menunjukkan dengan jelas kesediaan kerajaan untuk melumpuhkan kebebasan bersuara di saat rakyat berani untuk meluahkan rasa tidak puas hati terhadap dasar kerajaan.

Selepas Pilihanraya 8 Mac dan Pilihanraya Kecil Permatang Pauh, rakyat Malaysia telah menzahirkan keberanian dan iltizam mereka untuk membina satu masyarakat yang demokratik. Penahanan ini tidak akan meredakan merudumnya kredibiliti pentadbiran sekarang, malah hanya akan mempercepatkan kejatuhan pentadbiran ini.

KeAdilan mengulangi bantahan keras terhadap sebarang tindakan menahan individu secara sewenang-wenangnya. Kami secara konsisten menggesa pembebasan semua tahanan ISA kerana tindakan itu bertentangan dengan prinsip masyarakat demokratik. ISA ternyata digunakan untuk melumpuhkan sebarang kritikan dan digunakan terhadap individu yang mempertahankan hak kebebasan suara mereka yang bertentangan dengan pemerintah.

Menggunakan ISA hanya beberapa hari sebelum 16hb September jelas satu usaha untuk mencipta ketakutan dan ketidakstabilan palsu buat menjustifikasikan taktik kerajaan ke atas mereka yang bersama pembangkang.

Najib's aide: "It's mind boggling!"

Oleh: Beh Lih Yi (Malaysiakini)

"My informer states that Aziz was the person who placed the C4 on various parts of Altantuya’s body witnessed by Rosmah and Norhayati."



Jun 20, 08 7:15pm

"It's mindboggling!" - That's how Raja Petra Kamarudin's statutory declaration alleging that Deputy Prime Minister Najib's wife was at the murder scene of Mongolian national Altantuya Shaariibuu was described today.

An aide to Najib Abdul Razak also said they were aware of this latest claim made by Raja Petra, who also runs the 'Malaysia Today' website.

"At the moment, we are looking into it. This is a very mind-boggling statutory declaration," Najib's press secretary Tengku Sarifuddin Tengku Ahmad told Malaysiakini.

The latest allegation hurled at Rosmah Mansor was made by well-known blogger Raja Petra Kamarudin via a statutory declaration signed at the Kuala Lumpur High Court on Wednesday.

Tengku Sarifuddin however refused to comment if any action could be taken against Raja Petra.

Najib and Rosmah (left) have repeatedly denied they are linked to the killing of Altantuya, describing the widely-known allegations was nothing more than ‘slander and concocted stories’.

In his latest bombshell, Raja Petra accused Rosmah as among three individuals who were present when Altantuya was murdered on October 19, 2006.

"I have been reliably informed that between about 10pm on October 19, 2006 and early hours of the following day, the night Altantuya Shaariibuu was murdered, three other people were also present at the scene of crime," he said, according to his two-page statutory declaration.

He named the two other individuals as one acting colonel Aziz Buyong, who is described as ‘a C4 expert’ and the latter’s wife, known only as Norhayati, who is also said to be Rosmah’s aide de camp.

‘A crime not to reveal’

Altantuya’s body is alleged to have been blown up with C4 explosives at a secondary forest in Puncak Alam, Shah Alam. The murder trial is currently ongoing at the Shah Alam High Court.

"My informer states that Aziz was the person who placed the C4 on various parts of Altantuya’s body witnessed by Rosmah and Norhayati," Raja Petra claimed in the document.

"I make this statutory declaration because I have been reliably informed about the involvement of these three people who have thus far not been implicated in the murder nor called as witnesses by the prosecution in the ongoing trial at the Shah Alam High Court.

"I also make this statutory declaration because I am aware that it is a crime not to reveal evidence that may help the police in its investigation of the crime," read the document, which was first posted on the bigdogdotcom blog run by another blogger.

Raja Petra, contacted by Malaysiakini, has confirmed the content of the document.

He further alleged that he has also been ‘reliably informed’ that Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi knows of Najib's (right) wife alleged involvement.

"[...] Abdullah has received a written report from military intelligence confirming what I have revealed and this report was subsequently handed over to his son-in-law Khairy Jamaluddin for safekeeping," he said.

Apart from Abdullah and Khairy, Raja Petra claimed "one of the (Malay) Rulers" has also been briefed about the matter and is fully aware of the allegation.

He said he has agreed not to reveal their names other than mention that the prime minister and his son-in-law have been given a copy of the military intelligence’s report.

Police inaction over report

"The purpose of this statutory declaration is to urge all these parties who have been duly informed and have knowledge of this matter to come forward to reveal the truth so that the police are able to conduct a proper and thorough investigation into the murder of Altantuya.

"And I make this solemn declaration conscientiously believing the same to be true and by virtue of the provisions of the Statutory Declaration Act, 1960," he said in his declaration.

In the phone interview, Raja Petra explained why he did not lodge a police report on the latest allegation which could lead to a fresh police probe on the Altantuya (left) murder.

The blogger said since there was no action over a police report he had lodged in a separate case in 2001 when he was allegedly beaten up by a high-ranking policeman, "I am not bothered in making a police report".

When asked why the document was posted elsewhere instead of his own 'Malaysia Today' site, he retorted: "Why must it be published on my site?"

Raja Petra was called in for police questioning early last month over an article titled ‘Let’s send the Altantuya murderers to hell’ in which he implicated Najib and Rosmah in the high-profile murder case.

A close aide to Najib, political analyst Abdul Razak Baginda and two police special operations force personnel have been charged with the murder of the Mongolian national.

All three have pleaded not guilty for the ongoing trial. They face the death sentence should they be found guilty.

DSAI desak Raja Petra dibebaskan

beritaDalam kenyataan singkatnya di blog kepunyaannya di anwaribrahimblog, Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim (DSAI) mendesak pihak berkuasa supaya melucutkan dakwaan atau menarik balik segala pertuduhan ke atas Raja Petra Raja Kamaruddin (Pet) yang semalam di tahan kerana dakwaan di bawah Akta Hasutan.

Dakwaan tersebut berikutan sebuah artikel tulisannya yang mengaitkan pembunuhan kejam seorang wanita warga Mongolia, Altantuya Shariibu dangan Timbalan Perdana Menteri Malaysia, Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak (DSNR) dan Datin Seri Rosmah binti Mansur (DSRM).

Kata DSAI, "Pet diugut kerana mempersoalkan kebuntuan penyiasatan dan proses keadilan kes pembunuhan kejam Altantuya."

Beliau berkata demikian di dalam posting bertajuk "[b]ebaskan Raja Petra," bertarikh 06 Mei 2008.

Sebelum itu, di dalam posting yang sama beliau turut berkata, "[r]akyat dimungkiri lagi! Janji lunak PM Abdullah, Umno dan BN setelah dikejutkan dengan kebangkitan rakyat 8 Mac lalu ibarat madu yang disuntik racun."

RPK didakwa bawah Akta Hasutan

oleh Zulfikar Samsuri

Setelah menunggu selama lebih kurang sejam, RPK kemudiannya telah dipanggil ke Mahkamah Majistret Petaling Jaya.

Beliau telah didakwa di bawah Akta Hasutan Seksion 4 (1) (C).

Raja Petra minta dibicarakan atas dakwaan kerana menerbitkan artikel berbentuk hasutan pada 25 April di Malaysia Today.

Mahkamak akan mendengar pertuduhan yang ditetapkan pada 6 hingga 10 Oct dan Raja Petra telah dibenarkan untuk diikat jamin sebanyak RM5,000, tetapi beliau enggan dijamin, membuatkan beliau ditahan polis sehingga hari pendengaran pertuduhan.

Jika didapati bersalah, Raja Petra akan dikenakan penjara maksimum tiga tahun atau/dan didenda sehingga RM5,000.

"Saya telah tahu bahawa ia akan datang. Mereka akan cari jalan dan alas an untuk mendakwa saya tetapi ini semua adalah sesuatu perkara yang bodoh," katanya.

"Sekali mereka dakwa saya, kami akan tunjukkan bahawa tiada bukti untuk dakwa saya,” dia menambah.

Hadir sama ialah para pemimpin DAP termasuk Lim Kit Siang dan Ronnie Liu begitu juga AP Lembah Pantai, Nurul Izzah Anwar.

Pada 25 April, Raja Petra telah membuat posting sebuah artikel bertajuk 'Let's send the Altantuya murderers to hell' ke dalam blognyag, Malaysia Today. Postingnya mengaitkan Timbalan Perdana Menteri Najib Razak dan isterinya Rosmah Mansor di dalam kes berprofil tinggi.

Najib seterusnya mengemukakan surat penafian melalui setiausaha akhbarnya Tengku Sariffuddin Tengku Ahmad, dan begitu juga dengan Rosmah turut menafikan penglibatan beliau.

Kes pembunuhan kejam Altantunya sekarang ini sedang berlangsung di Shah Alam.
