I agree with the majority who still raise the two most burning questions:
1. What was their motive?
2. Could they possibly have acted without instructions?
That two relatively low ranking policemen could decide not only to murder but to blow up a woman of their own accord, with absolutely nothing to gain (no money, no vengeance, no nothing; isn’t establishing a motive vital to proving a murder?), still remains beyond the realm of belief to me.
The highly suspicious circumstances surrounding the process of this trial continue to stick out like a sore thumb. Having never seen their faces, and not knowing how the appeal process will go, we will also cannot know for sure if these two men will actually hang.
If they are going to, it really would be a good time for them to sing - to tell the truth in some hope of finding ablution before the real judgment day, and let the world know what really happened that night.
In all honesty, I’m not sure what kind of penalty befits these two men, who in all likelihood pulled the trigger (and administered that hard-to-procure C4). But I do feel that somebody, somewhere, is escaping unpunished.
Sadly, I do believe that without evidence, we cannot prosecute whoever these people may be. But God help whoever might be hiding or withholding any such evidence, should it exist.
A few decent things have happened in the first week of Najib’s premiership. This is not one of them.
Justice did not prevail today. Let us never cease to pursue it.
Altantuya and family - we’re sorry Malaysia has failed you thus far :(

We also seem to be failing Kugan. While we were again distracted by the by-elections, some ridiculous findings by the Ministry of Health were made, and the police have raided the office of the doctor who did the second post-mortem.
The Empire strikes back.
More on this to come soon, I hope.
