Long journey to justice: A total of 26 plaintiff witnesses, including Altantuya’s father Dr Shaariibuu (right), testified in the three-year trial.
SHAH ALAM: The High Court here has ordered the government and three others to pay RM5mil in damages to the family of Mongolian model Altantuya Shaariibuu, who was murdered in 2006.
This was after Justice Vazeer Alam Mydin Meera allowed the suit filed by Altantuya’s parents, Dr Shaariibuu Setev and Altantsetseg Sanjaa, as well as their two grandsons Mungunshagai Bayarjargal and Altanshagai Munkhtulga against former policemen Azilah Hadri and Sirul Azhar Umar, as well as Abdul Razak Baginda and the Malaysian government.
