Najib swears: 'I never knew Altantuya'

Should’ve been there any political conspiracy in the murder case of Mongolian Altantuya Shaariibuu? Datuk Seri Najib Razak hits back at Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, blogger Raja Petra Kamaruddin and private investigator P. Balasubramaniam’s claim that Najib knew Altantuya were nothing more than lies by taking oath according to the Islamic teaching.



According to Nik Aziz, in Islam, when a person swore on the name of Allah, he was inviting Allah to be a witness.

"This has a very significant meaning. According to Islamic laws, if you swear on Allah’s name and withdraw later, you will have to encounter kafarat (a fine for breaking a rule).

Thus Datuk Seri Najib Razak’s move can be seen as the clear-cut answer to the murder case of Mongolian Altantuya Shaariibuu.

It has been reported that Datuk Seri Najib Razak last night (22 August 2008) publicly swore according to Islam at Masjid Jamek Guar Perahu that he never knew murdered Mongolian Altantuya Shaariibuu, nor had anything to do with her.

The deputy prime minister said: "Even though this is not an official oath on the Quran: Wallahi, Wabillahi, Watallahi, I never knew nor had anything to do with the Mongolian woman Altantuya (Shariibuu)."

Najib said he did not know if anybody else wanted to swear, but "I know I did no wrong. This is between me and God".

It was a repeat of the oath he had taken at an Umno closed-door meeting earlier.

Najib's oath was backed up by honorary consul-general for Mongolia in Malaysia, Datuk Syed Abdul Rahman Alhabshi, who was also at the mosque.

Syed Abdul Rahman said the claims of Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, blogger Raja Petra Kamaruddin and private investigator P. Balasubramaniam that Najib knew Altantuya were nothing more than lies.

Syed Abdul Rahman said he had been the first Malaysian to be informed by police of Altantuya's murder and the first to go to Mongolia, where he opened a safe containing her documents.

"There was not one document, nor picture or video involving Najib (in the safe)," Syed Abdul Rahman said.
