KELANTAN prince Tengku Muhammad Fakhry's efforts to rid his "monster" image have been stonewalled by his estranged wife's lawyers.

Lawyers claiming to represent his Indonesian-American wife Manohara Odelia, 17, have yet to respond to his RM105 million defamation suit against her and his mother-in-law Daisy Fajarina, 44.

I have been reading the Malay Mail for the last 10 years or so and I must congratulate your paper on the new style of reporting. I feel compelled to write in about the Manohara saga, which I have been following.

Without a doubt, had it not been for Malay Mail, I would have joined the many in believing that the Kelantan
prince was indeed a beast with very low morals.

THE sizzling Manohara drama has a new chapter: an attempt by the Cik Puan Temenggong Kelantan's stepfather, a convicted sexual offender, to take her with him to Europe and defend his fugitive wife Daisy Fajarina.

Juergen Reiner Noack-Pinot Pinot, 66, who spent four months in jail last year in France for sexually assaulting Manohara's adopted sister known as Saliha, arrived in Jakarta last Thursday - taking the sag

THE accused seems to be taking all the legal action to clear his name while the accusers have strangely not moved an inch — except to continue to vilify their “tormentor” in the media. This is the continuing saga of the Manohara affair in which Princess Manohara Odelia, 17, and her mother Daisy Fajarina, 44, have not instituted any legal action against Tengku Temenggong Kelantan Tengku Muhammad Fakhry, 32.

POLICE have refuted the claim by Datuk Kadar Shah Sulaiman Ninam Shah that his personal assistant and  his office have been in constant contact with the cops in connection with the robberyrape case that occurred at his Shah Alam home on June 21.

Shah Alam police chief Assistant Commissioner Noor Azam Jamaluddin said contrary to the claim, police have not been contacted by his aides.

PRINCESS Manohara Odelia's father, George Manz, has described his ex-wife Daisy Fajarina "as an evil mother" who dabbles in black magic.

Speaking to Malay Mail from Canada, Manz, 58, said that Daisy, 44, took Manohara away from him when she was aged two, 15 years ago.

Asked to back his claims of Daisy dabbling in black magic, he said: "Once when we were together, I took Daisy to a dentist who was shocked when he saw her X-ray. She had small gold needles and diamond stones embedded inside her chin."

She FEARS going home

NOACK, 25, does not want to return to Indonesia for fear of confronting Daisy who had held her in a state of submission and exploitation since the age of 15.

This is according to a social report by the ALC Association in Nice under whose care Noack has been since 2007 (read the report here).

CONTROVERSIAL Indonesian beauty Manohara Odelia Pinot, 17, has failed to respond to the notice of nusyuz demanding her to return to her husband, the Tengku Temenggong Kelantan Tengku Muhammad Fakhry Sultan Ismail, 32, by yesterday.

The prince is now expected to seek a declaration under Syariah law that she is disobedient. If Manohara is declared nusyuz, she stands to lose her rights as a wife, her “Cik Puan Temenggong” title and material claims.

DATUK Kadar Shah Sulaiman Ninam Shah should offer proof that his involvement in the Manohara saga was carried out at the behest of the Kelantan palace.

A source from the Society of The Kelantan Royalty (Pertubuhan Kerabat DiRaja Kelantan) told Malay Mail that if Kadar Shah had actually obtained the palace’s blessing, he should furnish the necessary evidence.

In one sick instance, Daisy Farajina, 44, forced ex-French husband Jurgen Reiner Noack Pinot, 66, to caress the woman's body in front of her. Pinot, who admitted in court that he was afraid of his wife, did this after Daisy had undressed her Indonesian adopted daughter, known as Noack, an Indonesian. She then untidily cut her hair as punishment.
