Dr Shaariibuu Setev, the father of the murdered Mongolian national Altantuya today told the Shah Alam High Court that his daughter traveled to Kuala Lumpur last October to meet Abdul Razak Baginda.

To a question by DPP Manoj Kurup, Shaariibuu said Altantuya herself told him that.

"I asked her if she had anybody as a reason to go there (Kuala Lumpur)," he said.

"She told me yes. She said she knows someone in Malaysia whose name is Baginda," explained Dr. Shaariibuu, with the help of an interpreter.

Shaariibuu is the second prosecution witness to take the stand in this high-profile murder trial.

Private investigator P Balasubramaniam has been testifying for the past three days and almost the full day today.

Shaariibuu also described his daughter as having a jet-setting life as a professional translator and interpreter.

"She traveled most frequently to Malaysia, Singapore and China, but also traveled to many other countries."

When asked how many children he had, he replied that he had two daughters.

Manoj will continue with his questioning tomorrow when the trial resumes before Justice Mohd Zaki Md Yasin.

Political analyst Abdul Razak Baginda is charged with abetting the murder of Altantuya. Two special unit policemen, Chief Inspector Azilah Hadri and Corporal Sirul Azhar Umar are charged with murder.

All three are on trial together and face the death penalty if convicted.
