The police has to prove that Raja Petra has control over Malaysia Today. Raja Petra does not have to prove anything. But Malaysia Today is not registered in his name plus he does not have access to Malaysia Today. So they can’t prove he has control over Malaysia Today. In fact, it appears like others have control over Malaysia Today.
THE CORRIDORS OF POWER
Malaysia Today
Tunku Alizan Raja Tan Sri Mohd Alias would like Raja Petra Kamarudin sent to jail. He wants Raja Petra sent to jail because of three articles that were published in Malaysia Today: A scam, by any other name smells just as foul ; The new Member of Parliament for Putrajaya, Azim Zabidi ; Zul Rafique and Azim Zabidi, please go to hell! Tunku Alizan is one of the honchos of Umno Bukit Bintang. He is also a partner in the Umno-crony law firm, Zul Rafique & Partners. And he was the one-time neighbour of Raja Petra who feels that Anwar Ibrahim should have been allowed to die in jail instead of being released on 2 September 2004.
Azim Zabidi is the head honcho of Umno Bukit Bintang who lost in the recent general election on 8 March 2008. He is also the head honcho of Bank Simpanan Nasional. And underling honcho Tunku Alizan is terribly upset that Malaysia Today has revealed that a police report has been made against his head honcho. It is not that a police report has not been made. In fact, a police report has been made against Azim Zabidi. It is just that Tunku Alizan is upset that Malaysia Today revealed it. And Malaysia Today also revealed that a Chinese businessman has sued Azim for the return of more than RM1 million, which the businessman alleges Azim cheated him.
Tunku Alizan’s law firm, Zul Rafique & Partners, wants the three articles removed from Malaysia Today’s website. The articles are all true, of course, but they still want them removed. If they are not removed then they want the court to cite Raja Petra for contempt whereby he will be sent to jail. But Raja Petra can’t remove the articles. He can’t remove the articles not because he wants to be sent to jail, although we all know he does not really care if he is sent to jail. He can’t remove the three articles because the police will not allow him to do so.
Early last month, the police came to Raja Petra’s house to confiscate all his computers. According to the police, they are investigating a crime under the Sedition Act that Raja Petra had allegedly committed. This is the third time Raja Petra’s house has been raided and his computers confiscated. It is also the fourth sedition charge he is being investigated for.
Raja Petra has since been trying to contact the police officer, DSP Victor Sanjos, who confiscated his computers. The police, however, are ignoring his communications and are refusing to respond. So Raja Petra does not know whether his computers are going to be returned or not, and if so, when.
In the meantime, Zul Rafique & Partners wants Raja Petra to remove the three articles from Malaysia Today’s website. But Raja Petra no longer has access to Malaysia Today’s website. He can no longer even get access to his e-mail accounts at Yahoo and Gmail. You see, Raja Petra does what many of us also do: he saves his IDs and passwords in his computer so that he need not remember them each time he accesses his e-mail accounts. So, whoever now has possession of his computers has accessed his e-mails and has changed the passwords. And now Raja Petra can no longer get access to his e-mails. And the same goes for his ID and password that allows him access to Malaysia Today’s Blog.
Now, Raja Petra can no longer get into Malaysia Today’s Blog. So he can no longer either update the website or remove the three articles that Zul Rafique & Partners wants him to remove. The only way he can remove them would be if the police returns his computers. If the police do not return the computers then Raja Petra can’t remove the articles. So the police would be in contempt of court. But if they return the computers then it would mean that the computers were not an instrument in the crime of sedition and that in turn would mean they would have to drop the sedition charge against Raja Petra.
The police and AG are now in a Catch 22 situation. They either comply with the court order or they will be held in contempt of court. But if they try to wangle out of the contempt act by returning the computers, then this will affect the sedition action against Raja Petra. Till then, Raja Petra is sitting pretty. He is not able to comply with the court order since he is not able to access Malaysia Today’s Blog. He has no way of getting into Malaysia Today’s Blog to comply with the court order since the ID and password are ‘locked’ in his confiscated computers. And Raja Petra is putting the onus on the police to ‘cooperate’ with the court by returning his confiscated computers.
And Raja Petra demonstrated that he has no control over Malaysia Today by refusing to post bail whereby he had to spend three nights in the Sungai Buloh Prison. And, while he was in the Sungai Buloh Prison, Malaysia Today’s website was updated as usual. This means there are others who are updating Malaysia Today. And whoever it is that has control over Malaysia Today also changed the ID and password so that whoever has possession of Raja Petra’s computers cannot get in to Malaysia Today’s Blog.
Yes, Raja Petra’s IDs and passwords were ‘saved’ in his computers, as most of us also do. However, as soon as Raja Petra’s computers were confiscated, someone changed all these IDs and passwords even while the computers were still on the way to the police headquarters. Whoever had possession of Raja Petra’s computers could get into his various e-mail accounts and into Malaysia Today’s Blog. And, while Raja Petra spent three nights in the Sungai Buloh Prison, they continued updating the website as usual.
The police has to prove that Raja Petra has control over Malaysia Today. Raja Petra does not have to prove anything. But Malaysia Today is not registered in his name plus he does not have access to Malaysia Today. So they can’t prove he has control over Malaysia Today. In fact, it appears like others have control over Malaysia Today. Then the police has to prove that Raja Petra wrote the article Let’s send the Altantuya murderers to hell, which is the brunt of the sedition charge against him. But the police also can’t do that because there is no evidence Raja Petra wrote that article in the computers that they confiscated.
Raja Petra, in his normal devious self, is running rings around the police and AG. He knows they have to prove he wrote the article and that he has control over the publishing of the article and that Malaysia Today belongs to him. But they can’t do that on all three counts. And, when summoned to Bukit Aman for his statement to be recorded under Section 112, he refused to make any statement. So, not only have they not been able to prove anything but Raja Petra has neither admitted nor denied anything since he said absolutely nothing -- the first time in history, according to the police, such a thing has happened.
Meanwhile, as the police and AG run around like a blue-arse fly flying around shit in their attempt at trying to pin Raja Petra down, he is preparing his next salvo against Deputy Prime Minister Rosmah Mansor who wants to see him spend the rest of his life in jail. Yes, Najib Tun Razak, Rosmah’s nominee, is going to challenge Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi for the Umno Presidency. His running mate for number two is Muhyiddin Yassin while Ali Rustam, Shafiee Afdal and Rahim Thambi Chik are going for the three vice-presidents posts and Mukhriz Mahathir will take on Hishammuddin Hussein for the Umno Youth Leader’s post -- a classic Rouges’ Gallery if ever we did see one.
What has Raja Petra got up his sleeve for Team B? That, in time, will be revealed. In the meantime he wants to continue running rings around Umno, the police and the AG a wee longer. It is best that Abdullah’s Team A keep Raja Petra out of jail, at least until October when his sedition case is due to be heard, so that Team B can be brought down. After that, Team A can send him to jail so that he can no longer do any harm to Umno. Hmm……but what happens if Pakatan Rakyat walks in and forms the federal government instead, come September? Well, then that would paint a whole new scenario to this entire episode.

The Blogs 
since they have nothing better to do. with the already proven failure of defending the rights of pulau batu putih, i doubt they can actually prosecute you and find you guilty! hahahaha! 
We have no doubt that PDRM and this AG are only working for BN, particularly and obviously UMNO.
The evidence in Altantuya case is so obvious and our country is doing nothing to put the murderer to justice, and need to set up royal commission, even this is also controlled by UMNO.
What the shame of our country on justice, and I suppose all the goons UMNO ministers must resign. If not, let the citizen vote them out next round. Typically useless gang of ministers and leaders of Malaysia we have, they are not taking care of rakyat but merely their own pocket and cronies.
Look at case of RPK, BMC, PDRM, FRU, press freedom (my foot) etc. you will find our country is actually controlled by a single party and not a coalition party.
Only PR takes over we rakyat will have a chance for tomorrow and next century.
