NO NEW LEADS FROM SIRUL

I refer to the article “SIRUL ACCUSES IGP OF LYING ABOUT ALTANTUYA PROBE” published in MALAYSIAKINI today.

I firmly stand by what i have said to the press yesterday and there is no reason why i should mislead the public and the nation.

Sirul is a desperate man who is resorting to desperate measures to save his life. He is doing his best not to return to Malaysia where he will be facing the death penalty. As such, he is doing his utmost to bring into disrepute and cast doubt on the investigation into the murder case, his involvement therein and the criminal justice system.

From what we have gathered in his outbursts thus far, he has offered us no new leads that would absolve him of the crime. Therefore we would welcome his challenge to spill the beans, if he has any.
