From a 2007 description of his hero Anwar Ibrahim:
Various media reports indicate that Muslim Brotherhood figure and
Malaysian opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim was detained by Malaysian
authorities on Tuesday at the Kuala Lumpur airport in what was described
as a government crackdown on its opponents who have organized a series
of recent street demonstrations.
Another pissed-off Muslim and the world is terrorized on an increasingly epic scale.
Excerpted from The Daily Mail:
Police are investigating the possibility that the pilot of missing
Flight MH370 hijacked his own aircraft in a bizarre political protest.
The Mail on Sunday has learned that
Captain Zaharie Ahmad Shah was an ‘obsessive’ supporter of Malaysia’s opposition leader, Anwar Ibrahim.
And hours before the doomed flight left Kuala Lumpur it is understood
53-year-old Shah attended a controversial trial in which Ibrahim was
jailed for five years.
Campaigners say the politician, the key challenger to Malaysia’s
ruling party, was the victim of a long-running smear campaign and had
faced trumped-up charges.
Police sources have confirmed that Shah was a vocal political activist – and fear that the court decision left him profoundly upset. It
was against this background that, seven hours later, he took control of
a Boeing 777-200 bound for Beijing and carrying 238 passengers and
crew.
Yesterday, Malaysian police searched his house in the upmarket Kuala
Lumpur suburb of Shah Alam, where he had installed a home-made flight
simulator. But this newspaper can reveal that investigators had already
spent much of last week examining two laptops removed from Shah’s home.
One is believed to contain data from the simulator
Confirming rising fears, Malaysia’s prime minister Najib Razak
announced yesterday that MH370 was deliberately steered off course after
its communication system was switched off. He said it headed west over
the Malaysian seaboard and could have flown for another seven hours on
its fuel reserves.
It is not yet clear where the plane was taken, however Mr Razak said
the most recent satellite data suggests the plane could have been making
for one of two possible flight corridors. The search, involving 43
ships and 58 aircraft from 15 countries, switched from the South China
Sea to the Bay of Bengal in the Indian Ocean.
Data showing the number of plausible runways where the plane could
have touched down – which need to be at least 5,000ft – offer a baffling
number of potential locations.
According to a map drawn up by U.S. radio station WNYC, there are 634
locations which could fit, from Australia to the Maldives to Pakistan.
However, the true number is likely to be even higher, as estimates of
how far the plane could have travelled have been increased since the
calculations were carried out.
US investigators say faint ‘pings’ were being transmitted for several hours after the flight lost contact with the ground.
Meanwhile, military radar showed the jet climbed to 45,000ft – above
its service limit – which could have been a deliberate attempt to knock
out the passengers and crew.
Anwar Ibrahim is a broadly popular democracy icon and former
deputy prime minister whose prosecution on a charge of sodomy is seen by
many Malaysians as political persecution.
The raids on Captain Shah’s home appeared stage-managed as a display
of intent after the Prime Minister said the focus of the investigation
was now on ‘crew and passengers’ as a result of the latest leads.
But investigators have told the Mail on Sunday inquiries into the background of the pilot actually began days earlier.
Malaysian police, helped by FBI agents from the US, are looking into
the political and religious backgrounds of both Zaharie and his
co-pilot. Zaharie’s home was sealed off yesterday as police spent an
hour inside.
However, a senior investigation source said two laptops were taken
from the property in low-key visits by police early last week despite a
series of denials by officials that his home had been searched or
raided.
One laptop taken away is thought to contain data from the flight
simulator while a second contained little information. Zaharie’s
personal laptop was not found, and is thought to have been with him in
the cockpit of the plane, the source said.
Zaharie’s co-workers have told investigators the veteran pilot was a
social activist who was vocal and fervent in his support of Ibrahim.
‘Colleagues made it clear to us that he was someone who held strong
political beliefs and was strident in his support for Anwar Ibrahim,’
another investigation source said. ‘We were told by one colleague he was
obsessed with politics.’
In their interviews, colleagues said Zaharie told them he planned to
attend the court case involving Anwar on March 7, just hours before the
Beijing flight
