I regret my cavalier tone in my earlier post.
I have been reading the coverage of this affair, and it has to be the most sordid, disgusting miscarriage of justice that I have ever seen.
I have not yet seen any salacious photographs of the deceased. Many that are posted on the internet appear to be of a Korean personality who recently committed suicide. Nor do I believe that the deceased was an escort or a call girl, or even a "model," which is allegedly "code" for "prostitute" in Malaysia. I do believe that she was a translator, and I also believe that she was attempting to extort money from her wealthy lover, as she herself admitted in letters admitted into court testimony.
She sure did pay for it.
I met with DPM and Defense Secretary Datuk Seri Najib in KL a couple of years ago. The meeting was perfunctory, and related to business.
I sure am glad that I no longer have any need to spend time in Malaysia.
It makes me prefer Bangkok!
As long as you do not go near Government House, you would never know that there is any political unrest here.
The best gateway that I found to information on this matter was via Wiki. Then I started following links. The Courtroom of the Straits Times has a massive site on the affair.
This page, which undermines Datuk Seri Najib's Islamic declaration of innocence, seems absolutely explosive to me.
