Seek help from Sirul & Azilah,if Mahathir is serious about replacing Najib...

Malaysia at risk with Sirul in Australia...

Have you seen the Final Destination movies? In the end everybody must die. Fortunately for Sirul Azhar Umar, he knows that he would be dead if he returns to Malaysia. 

Those behind the murder of Altantuya Shaariibuu want him to die with the knowledge of the murder, by hook or by crook. Sirul can only try to postpone his demise.

But the Australian authorities could already have the confession by Sirul and that could be used by Australia as leverage in dealing with Malaysia. 

Fortunately with the exception of the spat between former prime minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad and Mr Paul Keating calling him a “recalcitrant”, Australia has been on friendly terms with Malaysia. Australia has helped in the SAR of MH370 more than necessary.

If Australia used the information given by Sirul against Malaysia, it would look like a “blackmailer” and it would be bad for international politics. But who would guarantee that the information would never leak out and go viral on the internet? 

There is not only one Edward Snowden mind you. What about Sirul’s son? He is already at the brink of blowing the whistle. He just needed to be provoked a little bit more!

The murder plan had gone wrong from the start. It was an ad hoc plan, discussed through within minutes and executed a.s.a.p., thus it did not cover every aspect. 

It was never and could not be a perfect crime because the perpetrators are not professional criminals and despite a close knit group of people, it is still too many.

Those involved will have to face the repercussions. It is only a matter of time before the whole thing will blow up. 

By the way, if Dr Mahathir is really serious to replace Najib, he should seek the help of Sirul and Azilah. See, the threat to the perpetrators could also be from Malaysia and not Australia.

But will Dr Mahathir do it when the time comes? – Nawawi Mohamad,tmi

Sirul Masuk Penjara Paling Teruk Rekod Hak Asasi Di Australia...

Bekas komando polis, Sirul Azhar Umar dilaporkan telah dipindahkan ke sebuah penjara dengan kawalan paling ketat di pinggir bandar raya ini oleh pihak berkuasa Australia lewat Jumaat, menurut stesen penyiaran Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC).

Sirul dilaporkan dibawa masuk ke Villawood Immigration Detention Centre, sebuah penjara kontroversi dengan keselamatan maksimum yang dibuka sejak 1976 dan terkenal memiliki rekod hak asasi manusia terburuk berbanding pusat tahanan biasa.

Pendedahan ABC itu sekali gus menafikan beberapa laporan media tempatan yang memetik sumber Wisma Putra di Putrajaya pada Jumaat kononnya mendakwa Sirul telah dibebaskan oleh pihak imigresen Australia untuk dibawa balik ke Malaysia.

Penjara Villawood lazimnya menempatkan tahanan kesalahan imigresen seperti tinggal lebih masa dibenarkan visa atau pendatang asing tanpa izin selain pencari suaka politik antarabangsa yang mahu berhijrah ke Australia atau transit ke negara ketiga lain.  

Sirul Azhar, 43, disabitkan kesalahan membunuh warga Mongolia, Altantunya Shaariibuu pada 2008 bersama-sama dengan rakannya, Azilah Hadri setelah Mahkamah Persekutuan di Putrajaya pada 13 Januari lalu membatalkan keputusan Mahkamah Rayuan.

Tertuduh gagal hadir pada hari keputusan itu diumumkan menyebabkan mahkamah mengeluarkan perintah penangkapan dan memohon bantuan kerajaan Australia untuk membawa tertuduh balik ke Malaysia bagi menjalani hukuman mati.

Dia dilaporkan sudah lama berada di Australia dan menetap bersama ahli keluarganya di Ipswich, barat Brisbane, Queensland sejak beberapa bulan selepas masuk menggunakan pasport dan visa sah pada tahun lalu.

Penguat kuasa Jabatan Imigresen dan Perlindungan Sempadan Australia hanya bertindak menahan Sirul  Selasa lalu selepas Polis Antarabangsa (Interpol) mewartakan notis merah untuk penahanan tertuduh di luar negara asal.

Namun, Australia enggan mengekstradisi Sirul balik ke tanah air kerana undang-undang negara berkenaan tidak membenarkan penghantaran pulang tertuduh bagi menjalani hukuman mati kecuali Malaysia memberi jaminan hukuman itu tidak dilaksanakan.

Jabatan Peguam Negara Australia juga setakat ini belum menerima sebarang permohonan rasmi untuk ekstradisi daripada kerajaan Malaysia dan jika berlaku sekali pun, proses dijangka mengambil masa amat lama sebelum diberi kelulusan. – Agensi

Unfair to blame Australia for Sirul's case...

Queen Counsel Mark Trowell said it was unfair for people to blame Australia in handling the Sirul Azhar Umar matter, as the Malaysian prosecution should have imposed strict bail conditions that he should not depart the country, or be allowed to leave on a regular commercial flight.

Trowell - who practises in Western Australia, and is a keen observer in Malaysian affairs - questioned the conduct of Malaysia's prosecution, as they should be aware of the definite prospect of a Federal Court reversal in the Altantuya Shaariibuu murder.

“It should be aware that Sirul would be a flight risk, but it seems nothing was done to guard against that by imposing strict bail conditions that he should not depart Malaysia - or approach an international point of departure - and requiring him to surrender his passport.

“None of these things were done and Sirul was effectively just allowed to leave on a regular commercial flight. Of course, Australia does not want him and we would like to return him, but it’s a bit unfair to blame us for what has happened as we didn’t allow him to flee Malaysia,” he said in an email to Malaysiakini.

Trowell (left) was asked as to what would be next in Sirul's proceeding in Australia following earlier reports by some local newspapers claiming that he had been released on strict conditions, and that the extradition process may take some time.

The senior Australian lawyer, however, said there are no reports there of Sirul being released. Australia's Immigration and Border Protection Department has also issued a statement denying it.

'Australia acted responsibly'

During the prosecution's appeal at the Federal Court last June, the team - led by Deputy solicitor-general II Tun Abdul Majid Tun Hamzah - did not impose conditions on Sirul and Azilah Hadri after the duo had been acquitted by the Court of Appeal on August 2013, and while awaiting decision by the apex court last week.

Trowell noted that Australia acted responsibly by promptly responding to the Interpol red notice to arrest Sirul.

He further pointed out that despite the notice indicating a view to extradite, that process does not automatically lead to extradition.

“It is just the warrant that authorises his arrest. The Malaysian government can complain all it wants, but it needs to make a formal application for his extradition. I am not sure that it has been done yet,” he said.

“The formal legal process should be well known by the Malaysian Attorney-General’s Chambers,” Trowell added.

The Queen's Counsel - who had previously explained to Malaysiakini the Australian extradition process - reiterated that their position is clear, as Australian law dictates that it will not allow a person to be surrendered to another country for an offence punishable by death unless there is an undertaking that such punishment would not be carried out.

Previously, Home Minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi said that a formal request had been sent to Australia to extradite Sirul through Wisma Putra, and that his ministry is also overseeing the matter. - mk

Jangan Menyesal Kalau UMNO Kalah...

Veteran Umno, Tan Sri Sanusi Junid mempertahankan kritikan bekas Perdana Menteri, Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad terhadap kepimpinan Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak dan Umno yang disifatkannya sebagai teguran untuk kebaikan parti itu.

Dalam satu rakaman video dimuat naik di YouTube oleh Blog Parti Melayu, kelmarin, Sanusi berkata, pandangan Dr Mahathir mengenai perubahan yang diperlukan dalam Umno patut dipertimbangkan oleh pemimpin parti itu.

“Kalau pemikiran dia (Dr Mahathir) betul, macam mana? Kita menyesal nanti apabila kita kalah, waktu itu sudah terlambat. Tun Mahathir barangkali dia tak mahulah dia dipersalahkan jika kita (Umno) kalah nanti, itu saja,” katanya dalam rakaman singkat bertajuk ‘Antara Mahathir dan Najib’ itu.

Menurutnya, konflik mula timbul kerana Dr Mahathir dan Najib yang juga Presiden Umno mempunyai pandangan berbeza mengenai cara memastikan survival parti itu.

“Saya kenal (Dr Mahathir), dia memang nak Umno dan BN menang. Cuma dia fikir dasar BN kena tukar, itu pandangan dia. Dia bukan nak BN dan Umno kalah.

“Bagi Najib pula, dia nak Umno menang (tetapi) dia juga nak ada di situ (kekal dalam Umno),” katanya.

Sanusi yang pernah menjadi Menteri Pertanian dan Menteri Besar Kedah berkata, kumpulan yang menentang pandangan Dr Mahathir adalah mereka yang ingin mengekalkan status quo, dasar dan pemimpin dalam Umno.

Sebaliknya, beliau berkata, Dr Mahathir lebih memikirkan kemenangan BN sama ada dengan menukar pemimpin atau dasar parti itu.

“Tapi saya nampak respons daripada pihak-pihak yang menyerang Tun Mahathir, mereka tak baca macam itu.

“Tun Mahathir, Daim bukan nak jadi Perdana Menteri. Mereka dah berumur, pernah jadi menteri dan Perdana Menteri,” katanya merujuk kepada bekas Menteri Kewangan, Tun Daim Zainuddin yang turut mengkritik kerajaan secara terbuka.

Menurut Sanusi, sebagai orang lama dalam politik, mereka ingin berkongsi pemikiran dan pandangan mengenai hala tuju parti itu.

Dr Mahathir sejak 2013 kerap mengkritik pentadbiran Najib termasuk cara pengurusan ekonomi negara serta beberapa skandal yang dikaitkan dengan kerajaan, termasuk isu pelaburan 1Malaysia Development Bhd.

Dalam wawancara eksklusif bersama Sinar Harian Disember lalu, Dr Mahathir berkata beliau tidak bersetuju dengan langkah Najib menukar banyak dasar ekonomi yang dilihat tidak memberi manfaat kepada negara serta menyifatkan ekonomi negara kini dalam keadaan lemah.

Beliau turut menegaskan ramai individu layak untuk menjadi pemimpin dalam Umno tidak diberi peluang sewajarnya kerana pemimpin Umno sedia ada takut kehilangan jawatan masing-masing.

‘Najib patut belajar daripada Dr Mahathir’

Sementara itu, Daim dalam temu bual eksklusif bersama China Press yang disiarkan semalam berkata, Najib patut belajar daripada Dr Mahathir cara pengurusan krisis, seperti banjir besar baru-baru ini.

Daim berkata, beliau menyampaikan pandangannya itu kepada Najib semasa bertemu dengan pemimpin nombor satu negara itu, baru-baru ini.

“Saya tak kata Najib gagal cuma dia kena lebih bijak. Dr Mahathir tunjukkan kepimpinan baik semasa harungi krisis,” katanya.

Selain itu, Daim berkata walaupun beliau yakin BN masih mampu menjadi kerajaan pada PRU14, parti itu perlu mengkaji kelemahannya.

Beliau juga kecewa dilabelkan sebagai antikerajaan kerana banyak mengkritik pentadbiran Najib secara terbuka.

“Kerajaan selalu kata sedia terima kritikan tetapi kalau ada orang kritik, mereka dianggap antikerajaan. Tetapi saya akan terus kritik demi negara dan kerajaan walaupun saya dibidas,” katanya.

Beliau juga menegaskan Mahathir ada hak untuk mengkritik Najib kerana Malaysia mengamalkan sistem demokrasi.

Dalam wawancara itu, Daim turut mengakui pemimpin muda sukar mendapat tempat dalam Umno kerana terdapat ketua-ketua bahagian yang menghalang pemimpin muda untuk naik bagi menjaga kedudukan masing-masing.
