PETALING JAYA: The family of murdered Mongolian Altantuya Shaariibuu, who secured a judgment for RM5 million in damages against the government, former political analyst Razak Baginda and two former policemen, is exploring the possibility of resolving the case with the defendants.

PETALING JAYA: Convicted murderer Sirul Azhar Umar’s freedom is likely to be cut short after the Australian parliament passed new laws to re-detain the “worst of the worst” of a group of high-risk offenders released from immigration detention last month.

PETALING JAYA: The Australian parliament is said to be rushing through sweeping new laws designed to recapture the majority of the 148 immigration detainees released last month following a High Court ruling that indefinite detention is illegal.

PETALING JAYA: Convicted murderer Sirul Azhar Umar, who was released earlier this month from an immigration detention centre in Australia, has been fitted with an electronic monitoring device which allows authorities to keep tabs on his whereabouts.

PETALING JAYA: Sirul Azhar Umar, who was released together with dozens of non-citizens after a landmark High Court ruling two weeks ago in Australia, could be put back behind bars under laws similar to those used to deal with terrorists which are being considered by the government.

Kuala Lumpur: Former policeman Sirul Azhar Umar, who is facing the death sentence for the murder of Mongolian Altantuya Shaariibuu, is still on the Interpol Red Notice list.

Kuala Lumpur: A close relative of Sirul Azhar Umar, one of the policemen found guilty of Mongolian national Altantuya Shaariibuu's 2006 murder, hopes that he will not return home to Malaysia and remain in Australia for his own good.

PETALING JAYA: Sirul Azhar Umar, who was sentenced to death for the murder of Mongolian national Altantuya Shaariibuu, has until next month to apply to the Federal Court for his sentence to be commuted, a former Malaysian Bar president said.
