New evidence will be revealed when time is right, says Altantuya’s dad

KUALA LUMPUR: Mongolian Dr Setev Shaariibuu has found new evidence in connection with his daughter’s murder trial and he will reveal it when “the time is right”.

Dr Shaariibuu said he was frustrated with the slow process of the trial.

“The authority has confirmed the DNA (belonged to his daughter Altantuya Shaariibuu) but why is there still no response?” Dr Shaariibuu asked reporters at the Parliament lobby during the swearing-in of MPs yesterday.

He noted that yesterday was Altantuya’s birthday and asked everyone at the press conference observe 10 seconds of silence as a mark of respect.

DAP national chairman Karpal Singh, who was present, said Dr Shaariibuu had filed a civil suit against the Malaysian Government for denying liability on the case.

Police Special Action Squad operatives C/Insp Azilah Hadri, 32, and Cpl Sirul Azhar Umar, 37, have been charged with killing Altantuya on Oct 20, 2006, in Shah Alam.

Political analyst Abdul Razak Baginda, 48, is accused of abetting them.
