Court: Altantuya's family wins civil suit against police officers, Razak ... (The Edge Markets MY)

THE family of Mongolian model Altantuya Shaariibuu have won a civil suit initiated in 2007, a year after she was killed by two police officers.

Azilah and Sirul led the police to the scene of the crime separately, as Azilah was arrested a few days after the murder, and Sirul on Nov 6, 2006, after returning home from official duty overseas. If not for Abdul Razak, Azilah and Sirul would not have taken the deceased in their car from his residence and ultimately kill her. However, a five-member Federal Court overturned the decision in January 2015, ruling both officers guilty of murder. Sangeet Kaur Deo, Tan Chee Kian and Simranjit Kaur Chhran acted for Altantuya’s family in the lawsuit, while Azilah and Sirul were not represented. “The first defendant (Azilah) did not know the deceased. The only link was the third defendant (Abdul Razak), who wanted to stop harassment [by Altantuya],” the judge said, noting Altantuya had come to Malaysia to seek compensation from Abdul Razak for translation work done in Paris. (Previous reports said that the work was in relation to the purchase of the two Scorpene submarines that Malaysia had acquired from France.) Abdul Razak then called Azilah and told him Altantuya was outside his house. Musa had dispatched Azilah to meet with the political analyst. The government presented three witnesses while Abdul Razak chose not to testify. Altanshagai’s name was removed from the list of plaintiffs after he died in 2017. THE family of Mongolian model Altantuya Shaariibuu have won a civil suit initiated in 2007, a year after she was killed by two police officers.

Police in China can track protests by enabling 'alarms' on Hikvision ... (The Guardian)

Chinese surveillance manufacturer Hikvision has put in place tools to help police track protest activities.

These are just a small part of the [Chinese government’s larger campaign](https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/sep/30/uyghur-tribunal-testimony-surveillance-china) to use technology to monitor and track members of religious and other minority groups. The document also describes “alarm methods” that include “discovery on duty”, “equipment alarm” and a call to the police. [technical document](https://open.hikvision.com/docs/docId?productId=5c67f20bb254d61550c2f63e&version=%2F658c4efa2595486c9ff140401628ff41&tagPath=%E9%99%84%E5%BD%95-%E9%99%84%E5%BD%95F%20%E6%95%B0%E6%8D%AE%E5%AD%97%E5%85%B8) also illustrates the sheer breadth of data on individuals the company enables its customers to track. That would also be the case for the “Falun Gong” alarm. The company’s website also included alarms for “religion” and “Falun Gong” – a spiritual movement banned in Hikvision pitches its cloud platform, called Infovision IoT, as a means to “provide intelligent public security decision-making and services” for police in order to alleviate “uneven allocation of resources, heavy workload, inability to share data”, [developing the capabilities](https://www.nytimes.com/2019/04/14/technology/china-surveillance-artificial-intelligence-racial-profiling.html) to detect Uyghurs and other minorities. So I am concerned about how technology can facilitate the tracking of repressed groups.” Chinese police can set up “alarms” for various protest activities using a software platform provided by Hikvision, a major Chinese camera and surveillance manufacturer, the Guardian has learned. “It raises significant freedom of assembly and freedom of religion concerns,” Rollet said. The US government has long had its sights set on Hikvision. The findings come a month after mass protests against the country’s zero-Covid policies erupted across China.
