There was a third person accompanying political analyst Abdul Razak Baginda and murdered Mongolian interpreter Altantuya Shariibuu on their travels in connection with the purchase of three French submarines by the Malaysian government.
Human rights NGO Suaram director Cynthia Gabrielm(right) said their lawyers had informed them that a third person's name came up during the investigations and the probe was going on, but it was still too early to determine who the person was. It had been earlier been revealed that a company named Gifen, established in Malta by Jean-Marie Boivin, had intervened in negotiations for the purchase of an Agosta and two Scorpene submarines to the Malaysian government to facilitate monetary transfers to finance Abdul Razak and Altantuya's travels.
The sale of the three vehicles were inked under a RM4.3 billion (1 billion euro) contract in 2002 between Malaysia and DCNS, formerly known as DCN, a shipyard builder allied with Spanish warship builder Thalès.

Gabriel declined to discuss this matter further when asked whether this 'mysterious' personality could be the missing link in the murder of Altantuya, which has dogged Prime Minister Najib Razak since 2006.
