On the second day of cross-examination, chief inspector Azilah Hadri, the murder accused, vehemently denied he was with corporal Sirul Azhar Umar at Puncak Alam for about 45 minutes where Altantuya Shaariibuu was murdered on that night.
This was despite his cell phone records indicating he had received calls or made calls while he was on his way to the crime scene or was at the crime scene.
Azilah, 32, who was answering questions from DPP Tun Majid Tun Hamzah and Shah Alam High Court judge justice Mohd Zaki Md Yasin, maintained his reply that he was with his fiancee Norazila Omar and later with girlfriend Lance Corporal Rohaniza Roslan on the night of the incident.
The accused who is a member of the elite Special Action Squad also disagreed with suggestions by Tun Majid that he had already conspire with Sirul Azhar in his mission to kill and destroy Altantuya while the two were at political analyst Abdul Razak Baginda's house in Bukit Damansara.
He, however, agreed that he, Sirul and Rohaniza had brought Altantuya to Bukit Aman. But, he denied that he and Sirul had brought Altantuya to Sirul's jeep where the three of them travelled from Bukit Aman till Puncak Alam and this ended with the Mongolian being murdered.
An excerpt of the cross-examination:
Tun Majid: What time were you with your fiancee Norazila?
Azilah: 10.30pm onwards, and I was having char kuey teow with her at a mamak shop near Carrefour in Wangsa Maju.
Now there is only one murder accused left standing - Sirul. Naturally, he will deny killing her too unless...and then, how about the 'government official' who was seen in a photograph with the victim?
