Ops Daulat: Lagi Penceroboh ditembak mati

Pasukan keselamatan menembak mati seorang pengganas ketika operasi penggeledahan di Kampung Tanjung Batu pada kira-kira 1.30 tengah hari semalam, menjadikan jumlah keseluruhan yang maut 63 orang.

Seorang militan wanita berusia lewat 40-an serta tidak bersenjata turut ditahan dalam operasi itu.

Panglima Angkatan Tentera Jen Tan Sri Zulkifeli Mohd Zin berkata kejadian itu susulan daripada pertempuran yang tercetus pada 11.30 pagi yang menyebabkan seorang anggota tentera cedera di jari kiri akibat terkena serpihan peluru.

"Susulan itu, pasukan keselamatan terus menjejaki musuh dan berlaku pertempuran di mana pasukan kita telah membunuh seorang daripada mereka serta menahan seorang wanita.

"Anggota tentera yang tercedera dibawa ke hospital berdekatan dan selepas pembedahan, keadaannya stabil," katanya pada sidang akhbar bersama Timbalan Ketua Polis Negara Tan Sri Khalid Abu Bakar di Markas Operasi Felda Sahabat 16, dekat Lahad Datu hari ini.

Berhubung kemungkinan penduduk Kampung Tanduo boleh kembali ke kediaman masing-masing, Zulkifeli berkata pasukan penilaian terdiri daripada Majlis Keselamatan Negara (MKN), Majlis Daerah Lahad Datu dan Ibu Pejabat Polis Lahad Datu akan digerakkan ke kampung itu selewat-lewatnya esok bagi melakukan penilaian keseluruhan sebelum penduduk dibenar pulang.

Beliau berkata kelewatan membenarkan penduduk pulang ke rumah ialah bagi memastikan kawasan kampung itu yang di kelilingi paya, hutan dan semak samun, benar-benar selamat daripada ancaman selepas ia menjadi sasaran utama militan selain berlaku banyak pertempuran di situ sebelum ini.

"Dari segi kerosakan fizikal agak mudah untuk dinilai tetapi dalam aspek keselamatan kami perlu pastikan keadaan benar-benar bersih dan selamat sebelum penduduk dibenar kembali ke kediaman mereka," katanya dan memberitahu bahawa hanya terdapat 12 rumah penduduk di kampung itu.

Dalam perkembangan berkaitan, Zulkifeli turut menafikan dakwaan bahawa sekumpulan lelaki dari Sabah akan dihantar ke Filipina untuk membunuh Kiram, dan berkata dakwaan itu tidak berasas dan mengarut.

Sementara itu, Khalid ketika ditanya sama ada pihak berkuasa mempunyai bukti sehingga lapan militan didakwa di mahkamah berkata: "Sudah tentu, tapi kita tidak boleh dedahkan dan jika tiada bukti bagaimana kita boleh mendakwa mereka.

Beliau berkata mana-mana pihak yang cuba mempertikai tindakan itu perlu menunggu sehingga perbicaraan dan sekiranya mempunyai sebarang persoalan ia boleh dirujuk kepada Wisma Putra.

Lapan rakyat Filipina hari ini didakwa di Mahkamah Tinggi di Tawau dan dua daripadanya bakal berdepan hukuman mati kerana dituduh melancarkan perang terhadap Yang di-Pertuan Agong dan menjadi anggota kumpulan pengganas.

Empat lagi didakwa menjadi anggota kumpulan pengganas manakala dua yang lain didakwa cuba melindungi sekumpulan pengganas.

Kesemua mereka ialah antara 108 individu yang disiasat mengikut Akta Kesalahan Keselamatan (Langkah-Langkah Khas) (SOSMA) 2012.

Berhubung statistik terkini pencerobohan, Khalid berkata 30 mayat militan berjaya dikeluarkan dan selesai dibedah siasat, namun sehingga kini tiada pihak tampil menuntut mayat-mayat itu.

Jumlah tangkapan di bawah SOSMA kekal 108 orang, manakala 268 individu ditahan mengikut lain-lain akta setakat ini, katanya.

  1. Terrorists practise mysticism, their corpses decompose fast

    LAHAD DATU: The militant group that intruded into Lahad Datu claim they are fighters of Islam, but the marks found on their bodies showed they were using elements of mysticism, which is unislamic.
    Among the items which were unislamic found on the bodies of the terrorists were amulets which they believed could make the terrorists invulnerable and a calendar used to predict a suitable day to attack the security forces.
    According to sources in the security forces, some of the terrorists who were shot dead, wore amulets and had tattoos of Quranic verses on their bodies.
    “They might be immune to bullets but not all the time. In fact, a mortar explosion can kill them even if their skins were impenetrable,” he said.
    He said, a body of a dead terrorist which had black marks believed to have been caused by a bullet, could have been killed by mortar fire.
    “Strangely, the bodies of practitioners of mysticism are quick to decompose and covered with maggots within an hour. The corpse of a normal person will only be covered with maggots if left exposed for more than two to three days.
    Sabah Armed Forces Religious Corps (Kagat) officer, Major Anuar Mat Zin said Islam forbade the use of mysticism which idolised other beings besides Allah in upholding a struggle because it deviated from the religious foundation.
    He said the action could damage the faith and make their struggle futile.
    “Idolatry in seeking power such as immunity (from bullets) is wrong in Islam. The religion does not accept such struggles regardless of the intention and aim,” said Anuar, who was also involved in Operasi Daulat in Lahad Datu.
    He said the question of death was in the hand of Allah and nobody or power could avert it.
    The terrorists, who were allegedly using mystic powers for invulnerability, also wore amulets and prediction cards, namely, the knowledge of Kutika, derived from the book Tajul Muluk and this was confirmed by the deputy Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Khalid Abu Bakar.
    “It could be their belief,” he told reporters at the Felda Sahabat 16 operation headquarters, near here, yesterday.
    MP for Silam Salleh Kalbi said the practice of mysticism by the terrorists did not reflect them as holy fighters
    (jihad) as certain quarters in the country tried to portray.
    “According to Islam it is illegal to interfere in a sovereign nation, namely, its leaders are freely picked by the people.
    “But it is allowed if the sovereignty of the nation is threatened like Palestine because it is to defend its sovereignty,” he said, and added that the sacrifices of the security forces in defending a sovereign nation could be regarded as jihad.

  39. LAHAD DATU:'Find solution fast to avoid meddling by big powers'

    The Lahad Datu imbroglio must be settled swiftly and amicably to avoid any intervention from big powers, said a Filipino Muslim scholar.

    Despite expressing optimism that the matter could be solved by the parties concerned, University of Philippines' Head of Islamic Studies Prof Julkipli Wadi Adduk, said however, if the situation persisted, it may draw a third interested party into the crisis.

    I can see the outside power is able to step in if both governments do not take fast action to tackle the issue. If this happens, we will have bigger problems in Southeast Asia.

    "Do we really want intervention (from the big power) to happen?" he said at a discourse entitled 'The Sabah claim and Beyond', at Universiti Malaya here, today.

    Concurring with Julkipli, international law lecturer at Lyceum Philippines University, Prof Romel R. Bagares warned that the crisis could have adverse impacts on security not only on both countries but also the Asean region as a whole.

    It could also hamper the roadmap of the creation of the Asean Community by 2015, he added.

    "If it escalates, it will not be a Malaysia-Philippines issue anymore. It will cause power imbalance and instability in the region.

    This is something Asean does not want to happen," he added.

    "It is important to make sure none of them feel rejected because they are capable of causing trouble as each has faithful followers," he said.

    He said affirmative action must be taken this time to put a close to this issue.

    "I fear that if we do not close for good this issue, it will recur, and would be more serious than now, as had happened in the past," he added. -- BERNAMA

  54. Semenjak tercetusnya krisis pencerobohan di Lahad Datu sehinggalah pertempuran demi pertempuran yang berlaku di sana, ada sahaja rintangan yang terpaksa diharungi oleh pasukan keselamatan kita. Sekurang-kurangnya ada tiga cabaran utama yang terpaksa kita hadapi sepanjang tempoh genting ini.

    ReplyDelete
  55. 1- Tentangan dari pengganas Sulu yang mahir dalam peperangan bercorak gerila dan mirip kelakuannya seperti komunis yang gemar menggunakan pendekatan ganas bermatlamat untuk menjatuhkan moral dan semangat tempur lawan mereka. Ini jelas dapat dilihat selepas dua pertempuran awal yang menyaksikan beberapa anggota keselamatan kita ada antaranya diseksa dan dizalimi, sementara yang lain ada yang dipenggal kepalanya.

    ReplyDelete
  56. Keadaan ini amat memilukan kaum keluarga perajurit yang terkorban dan sedikit mengganggu emosi anggota keselamatan yang lain, namun pengalaman berdepan dengan kekejaman komunis suatu ketika dulu mengajar kita erti keteguhan semangat dalam meneruskan perjuangan yang belum selesai.

    ReplyDelete
  57. 2 - Cabaran yang tidak kurang hebatnya datang dari media luar negara yang banyak menyiarkan maklumat propaganda menyebelahi kumpulan pengganas Sulu. Mereka bukan sahaja cuba membenarkan tuntutan hak milik ke atas Sabah, malah memanfaatkan media-media tersebut dimanfaatkan sepenuhnya untuk membangkitkan ketakutan di kalangan rakyat Malaysia khususnya di Sabah.

    ReplyDelete
  58. Lebih mengeruhkan keadaan apabila ada di kalangan pengamal media elektronik dalam negara yang turut menjadi penyambung lidah kepada propaganda Jamalul Kiram dan kuncu-kuncunya sehingga menimbulkan keraguan segelintir khalayak terhadap kemampuan pasukan keselamatan kita dalam menangani isu ini.

    ReplyDelete
  59. 3 -Cabaran paling getir yang perlu dihadapi bila mana wujudnya segelintir rakyat kita yang langsung tidak memiliki semangat patriotik telah cuba memperlekehkan kesahihan peristiwa Lahad Datu yang digambarkan oleh mereka ini kononnya ia adalah sandiwara atau konspirasi yang di ada-adakan.

    ReplyDelete
  60. Selain itu, golongan yang tidak patriotik ini juga turut meremehkan nyawa anggota keselamatan kita yang telah terkorban di masa yang sama mereka juga mempersendakan kemampuan pasukan keselamatan kita untuk berdepan dengan tentangan pengganas Sulu.

    ReplyDelete
  61. Dalam perkembangan berkaitan, Zulkifeli turut menafikan dakwaan bahawa sekumpulan lelaki dari Sabah akan dihantar ke Filipina untuk membunuh Kiram, dan berkata dakwaan itu tidak berasas dan mengarut.

    Banyak juga dakwaan keatas pencerobohan ini, tetapi manakah yang benar? Siapakah dalangnya?

  62. Kegiatan penceroboh ini meningkatkan kemarahan semua warganegara Malaysia. Harus jusg kerajaan mengambil tindakan yang sewajarnya.

    ReplyDelete
  63. Ini adalah saat palingmenyedihkan khas kepada mangsa keluarga yang terkorban. Usaha dan pengorbanan mesti diingati selalu.

  64. Isu ini sudah pasti berkait rapat dengan PRU13 ini.
