Family has to prove Altantuya’s killing again in civil suit


SHAH ALAM: The family of Mongolian model Altantuya Shaa­rii­buu will have to prove her brutal killing all over again as the civil High Court has ruled that evidence from the murder case, which found two police officers guilty, cannot be used in the civil case.

Justice Vazeer Alam Mydin Meera dismissed an application by the deceased Mongolian translator’s family to include evidence of her murder case in their suit against the government.
