Q1: Why make the revelation now, why didn’t you correct the media reports soon after your SD came out two years ago?
Actually the SD was signed 3 years ago, not 2 years ago. And it was published the very next day and I was arrested and charged almost immediately.
I have been writing article upon article over the last 3 years saying that I did not make any allegation about Rosmah Mansor and the two Lt Kols husband and wife. What I said was that an informer had informed me about the matter.
By the way, have you read my SD yet? I would suspect not, as many who comment do so without reading it. That is why you said 2 years instead of 3. Or else you would have known it was signed in June 2008.
Anyway, is it my job to correct what the mainstream media intentionally distorts? And did anyone from the mainstream media talk to me? Most of the mainstream media actually covered my trials but still they misreported the whole thing.
Are you saying I am to blame for the misdeeds and malicious acts of others? Their job is to whack me and that is what they did. Now, after 3 years of getting whacked, I am whacking back. Is this not my right?
Anyway, the interview was done 2 months ago, not now. People ask me why now, just before the Sarawak elections?
2 months ago there was no confirmation of the Sarawak elections. So when do I do it? After the Sarawak elections? Then, after the Sarawak elections, people will say why now, just before the 13th GE? So I wait until after the 13th GE and people will still ask, why now, just before a by-election?
So when should I do it? After Malaysia bans elections?
Q2: Can you comment on Din Merican’s denial that he was involved in the attempt to discredit Rosmah and Najib?
Did I say he was involved? I just asked him to check with Anwar Ibrahim the background of Lt Kol Azmi Zainal Abidin and that was what he did. And he admitted this in his Blog posting. So what is the issue? Why accuse me of something I did not do?
Q3: Aside from your Statutory Declaration, do you have any proof of the involvement of the people you mentioned in the attempt to discredit Najib and Rosmah?
What do you mean by proof? Video recordings of them in towels in a hotel room? Define ‘proof’. Anwar was convicted and sentenced to 15 years jail in 1999 based on testimony. Testimony is proof and that was good enough to sentence Anwar to 15 years jail. My testimony is even better. It is in the form of an SD.
Q4: Now talks on the ground is that your sudden revelation is because you want to return to Malaysia. Your comment?
Talks on the ground is that Najib was caught kalwat in a Port Dickson hotel room. Do you want to ask Najib this? Who cares about talks on the ground? If the government says I am welcome back in Malaysia and I tell the government to go to hell because I love it in the country of my birth what then are you going to say?
And what ‘sudden revelation’? Have you not heard what I said? I have been repeating this again and again over the last 3 years. What’s so sudden about saying the same thing over 3 years? You mean I kept silent the last 3 years and only today I am talking?
Q5: You have also been accused of shifting attention from the Sarawak election with your latest allegation. Your thoughts.
Shifting attention? You really must improve your communication skills because I don’t understand what you mean. I have also been accused of going to church every Sunday and that my wife and I have left Islam to become Catholics.
Do you really think I care what they say? My interview was done before the announcement of the Sarawak elections. Maybe they held the Sarawak elections to shift attention from my interview since my interview came first.
Q6: Where does your loyalty lie now that you have turned the tables against Anwar and the opposition front?
You must be smoking something. Let me know what it is so that I can get some. My loyalty from Day One was always with the rakyat: dulu, kini dan selama-lamanya. Now, which part of the word rakyat don’t you understand?
Raja Petra Kamarudin
Saya memaklumkan orang teman ini bahawa saya begitu kecewa dengan apa yang dikatakan oleh RPK di TV3 (Tidak nonton tapi ada yang memaklumkan).
Seperti biasa itulah respons spontan kita, sama seperti isu-isu lain di ambang pilihan raya penting, setiap kali kita berdepan dengan berita-berita begini. Para aparat keparat akan digunakan dengan semahu-mahunya.
Terima kasih pkh untuk bahan di atas. Sekali lagi terima kasih. Sdr Lutfi, elok juga jika kita terjemahkan emel ini untuk tatapan pembaca detik dan harakah, bercetak dan juga digital.
