Syed Abdul Rahmah Al- Habshi

Who is the real Mongolian consul for Malaysia?

Who is the Mongolian consul for Malaysia, the man on the left of the photo above?

Gan Tack Guan And Abdul Razak Baginda are not the only ones suspicious about Mongolia’s Honorary Counsul for Malaysia (Bernama).

Gan is Peace Hill’s Malaysian Interpol Assistant Director (what a mouthful of words for a position) and the consul Syed Abdul Rahmah Al- Habshi is a glamour seeker in the Altantuya Shariibuu trial.

He often speaks for Altantuya’s dad, Stev Shariibuu, arranges his stay when the former comes for the trial, and watches over him like a hawk. Except for the last time, when Shariibuu managed to escape his watchful eyes and met with Opposition and supporters (outside the police force) like Raja Petra Kamaruddin.

Yes, what is this man’s status in Mongolia as well as Malaysia? Bernama did not state why the lawyer for Abdul Razak Baginda questioned Gan about this man’s background?

It is not clear whether he has an office in Kuala Lumpur, or Mongolia, or in Bangkok?

Gan had gone to Mongolia to conduct a DNA test on Altantuya’s youngest son, and later newspapers reveal that her son was not Abdul Razak Baginda’s. The report quoted ‘police sources’. Does Gan know about this?

I was highly suspicious about the report as his team did not conduct any test on the small boy.

The forensic experts from Malaysia visited my home in Ulaanbataar on 14 March 2007, they saw my grandson but did not take his blood samples. Instead they took blood samples from my wife (Shariibuu)

This was not the only confusion. Abdul Rahman told the press that Shariibuu had been informed of the forensic team visiting him in Mongolia but Shariibuu denied being told when and was not given much details of his visitors. Read more here.

Also, earlier Abdul Rahman was very eager to break the news of the forensic team’s visit to Ulanbataar, when Shariibuu was told to keep the matter under wraps. A mere case of publicity craze or….?

The counsul also often puts words in Shariibuu’s mouth, for example, telling the press that the latter was satisfied with the trial, when in fact the man was fuming that the trial was postponed yet again.

He gave Altantuya’s photos to Asia Sentinel. The series of photos show Altantuya posing in various places in Paris. What does he want these photos to show? That she was there - in the city where the signing of a certain deal took place?

Who is this man working for?

I am not sure but I would be glad to know what is the consul’s role in the Altantuya trials?

Najib Swears In Guar Perahu Mosque He Did Not Know Or Had Connection With Altantuya


BUKIT MERTAJAM, Aug 23 (Bernama) -- Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak on Friday night swore in Masjid Jamek Guar Perahu near here that he did not know or had any connection with Mongolian woman Altantuya Shaarribuu who was murdered in 2006 in Puncak Alam, Selangor.

Najib said he was making the swearing although it was not an offical swearing made on the Quran.

"Wallahi, Wabillahi, Watallahi (With Allah as my witness) I swear I do not know or have any connection with the Mongolian woman," he said at the end of his speech at a ceremony to give aid of RM1.4 million at the mosque.

The aid is to repair, renovate and buy new equipment for eight mosques and 20 surau in the state constituency of Penanti.

"I do not know if others want to swear or not but I know I did no wrong. This is between me and God," he said.

Najib also made the same swearing by repeating the same words when he visited the Barisan Nasional (BN) operations room in Guar Perahu.

Meawnhile, Mongolia's honorary consul in Malaysia, Datuk Syed Abdul Rahman Al-Habshi who also present, said: "Datuk Seri Najib's swearing is true and it is accepted that he has no connection with Altantuya."

Syed Abdul Rahman said when the murder happened he was the first Malaysian who knew of it and he was also the first to go to Mongolia to go over Altantuya's documents.

"Not one document, photograph or video involved Najib," he said.

Syed Abdul Rahman said Parti Keadilan Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) advisor Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, Malaysia Today webmaster Raja Petra Kamaruddin and private investigator P Balasubramaniam had created a big lie.

"I regret they feel they know more about the case. Anwar lied that he met Altantuya's father in Mongolia. At that time I knew Anwar was coming and took her father (Dr Shaarriibuu Setev) to Russia," he said.

"No one knows more than me and Anwar had lied with several accusations against Najib," Syed Abdul Rahman said.

He said the reason he was present at the function was to clarify the confusion as Anwar's actions could affect the good relations between Malaysia and Mongolia and that he had been directed by Mongolia's Prime Minister Sanjaa Bayar to assist.

Syed Abdul Rahman said after he was appointed by the Mongolian prime minister to investigate the murder of Altantuya, he discovered that Najib had nothing to do with the case.

He said he felt responsible to clarify the matter as if he kept quiet "the people will be more confused as more lies will be made and I feel ashamed that a national leader's name who has no connection with the case has been tarnished by Anwar and Raja Petra."

"It is very shameful when our national leader's name is tarnished abroad as being involved in the case and that is why I have to clarify to the public about the lies that have been made," he said.

Anwar at each rally in campaigning for the Permatang Pauh by-election has been alleging Najib had links to Altantuya.

On July 3, at a news conference in Petaling Jaya chaired by Anwar, Balasubramaniam produced a statutory declaration that alleged Najib had sexual relations with Altantuya but the next day retracted it and subsequently went missing together with his family.

Raja Petra posted articles on his website alleging Najib was connected to her murder and he (Raja Petra) has since been charged in court for it.

The Altantuya murder hearing is ongoing at the Shah Alam High Court.

Najib also said Anwar's pledge to reduce fuel prices if he became prime minister was mere empty talk.

"That is the way he conducts politics...making all kinds of claims. But today the BN government delivered on this," he said.

Effective Saturday, the price of petrol (RON97) will be reduced by 15 sen to RM2.55 a litre from RM2.70, RON92 by 22 sen to RM2.40 a litre from RM2.62 and diesel by eight sen a litre to RM2.50 from RM2.58.

Selepas Saiful, giliran Najib pula bersumpah..
August 23, 2008
Ketika menghampiri hari pengundian kempen pilihan raya kecil kerusi Parlimen Permatang Pauh semakin rancak dengan perkembangan terbaru, Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak bersumpah di Masjid Jamek Guar Perahu dekat sini malam tadi bahawa beliau tidak kenal dan tidak ada kaitan dengan wanita Mongolia, Altantuya Shaariibuu.

Timbalan Perdana Menteri itu berkata:

“Walaupun ini bukan sumpah rasmi yang dibuat atas al-Quran. Dengan nama Allah, Wallahi, Wabillahi, Watallahi, saya tidak kenal dan tidak ada kaitan dengan perempuan Mongolia. Saya tidak tahu sama ada orang lain nak bersumpah atau tidak, tapi saya tahu saya tak buat salah. Ini antara saya dengan Tuhan.”

Selain ucapan bersumpah itu, yang turut mengejutkan banyak pihak ialah ucapan Konsul Mongolia di Malaysia, Datuk Syed Abdul Rahman yang berucap kira-kira 10 minit ketika Najib turut melawat Bilik Gerakan Barisan Nasional (BN) di Guar Perahu.

Syed Abdul Rahman mendakwa Penasihat Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR), Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim; pengendali laman web Malaysia Today, Raja Petra Kamaruddin dan penyiasat persendirian P. Balasubramaniam telah melakukan satu pembohongan besar …
