The order to kill the Mongolian beauty Altantuya Shaariibuu must have been cascaded down the line of command from someone above. Ultimately Sirul Azhar Umar was the one who had to do all the dirty work and take all the blame when things went wrong.

Thus when any person along the line of command is removed, the others will be insulated and will not collapse like a domino.

Therefore allowing Sirul to slip off to Australia could be part of the plan. Sirul may be allowed some freedom and may also tell his story, but he could only put the blame on his immediate superior.

Sirul telling his story also acts like a pressure release valve, since the Altantuya murder case has heated up like the pressure in a volcano that increases from time to time.

In court, Sirul mentioned that it was Azilah Hadri who instructed him to ensure that Altantuya was really dead. Sirul may not know firsthand on who actually gave the order.

The one who gave the order must have been wise enough to insulate himself or herself from the crime through the line of command. Thus whatever Sirul will say, he cannot say for sure say that such and such person instructed them to kill.

Azilah Hadri on the other hand knew the next person above him who gave the order. Likewise, Azilah could only say for sure that his immediate superior gave the command. Thus, Sirul is let loose in Australia and is spared for doing the real killing and Azilah is the main person who must be removed from the line of command to prevent the domino effect.

What is happening to Azilah and where is he now?

The perpetrators have been able to divert our attention away from the murder and maybe they are scheming something. The Sodomy II case is also being kept alive to divert our attention by Tan Sri Shafee Abdullah and Khairy Jamaludin.

If the perpetrators are kind enough, they could be making special arrangements to ensure Azilah will eventually be living far away comfortably under a different identity. The worst case scenario is that he could be in solitary confinement and rushed up to the gallows.

Still, unless and until the real perpetrators in the murder of Altantuya are brought to justice, this murder case will not fade away. – February 19, 2015.
