We may commute Sirul’s death sentence, says Dr M

Sirul Azhar Umar (left) and Mahathir

PUTRAJAYA: The death sentence imposed on Sirul Azhar Umar may be commuted to allow Australia to extradite the former police corporal back to Malaysia, said Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad.

The Prime Minister said this would allow authorities here to reopen the case of Mongolian model Altantuya Shaariibuu.
