Raja Petra to be detained 2moro
Raja Petra Kamaruddin is to be charged with criminal defamation.
He has been ordered to surrender at the Kuala Lumpur contingent police headquarters (IPK) tomorrow at 10am.
His wife Marina Lee Abdullah told Malaysiakini that Raja Petra was issued a warrant of arrest this morning through his lawyers.
“We spoke to one ACP Aziz at 2pm just now and he confirmed that Petra must report to IPK KL tomorrow,” she said.
She confirmed that he will be charged for criminal defamation, in relation to allegations in his statutory declaration that implicated Rosmah Mansor, wife of deputy premier Najib Abdul Razak, in the murder of Mongolian translator Altantuya Shaariibuu.
Raja Petra also named the two others - acting colonel Aziz Buyong, who is described as ‘a C4 expert’ and his wife, known only as Norhayati, who is also said to be Rosmah’s aide de camp.
He further alleged that premier Abdullah Ahmad Badawi, his son-in-law Khairy Jamaluddin and a Malay ruler had been briefed on the matter and are fully aware of the allegation against Rosmah.
Raja Petra claimed that Abdullah has handed over a written report from military intelligence on the matter to Khairy for “safekeeping”.
Rosmah has denied the allegation.
They might arrest him at 9.15 tomorrow. 10.00 o clock is just too late.
