What are your impressions when you read the following AP report today?
Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi today ruled out imposing emergency rule if street protests broke out in the event that opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim was arrested.
“I don’t think we are going down that road; definitely not,” Abdullah told Associated Press in an interview today.
“Why should (protests) get out of hand? That would be very unbecoming of the party that intends to be the government of Malaysia – to take laws into their own hands and demonstrate as they wish.”
There are fears that Anwar could be arrested in the coming days as the police wrapped up their investigation into a former aide’s allegation that he was sodomised by Anwar.
Abdullah said that the 23-year-old ex-aide, Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan, deserved justice as much as any other Malaysian.
“This man pleads for justice,” Abdullah said. “We care about (Anwar) more than we care about this man? That is very odd. He needs justice; that is what he is crying for. We cannot ignore that.”
The conclusions which one can reasonably draw from this AP report include:
1. That the widespread speculation of an impending arrest of Anwar Ibrahim on Sodomy II charge is strongly grounded;
2. That the Prime Minister has been briefed of police measures in the event of Anwar’s arrest; and
3. That the Prime Minister is privy to the decision that will be taken by the Solicitor General on the police investigation papers on Anwar’s Sodomy II allegation – which the Home Minister, Datuk Seri Syed Hamid Albar told media today as having been submitted to the Attorney-General’s Chambers.
How does this square with the fundamental constitutional principle that no one, including the Prime Minister, should be involved in the exercise of the “sole discretionary power” to prosecute or not to prosecute which is vested in the Attorney-General under Article 145 (3) of the Constitution?
Or is this the latest example of the desecration of the doctrine of separation of powers in Malaysia?
My feeling after reading Abdullah’s comments in the AP report is that Anwar’s arrest to be charged for Sodomy II is most imminent.
This is fortified by the Bernama report on the threat issued by the Deputy Health Minister, Datuk Dr. Abdul Latif Ahmad that Hospital Pusrawi is liable to a fine of up to RM300,000 and its management being jailed for “negligence” which led to the leakage of information concerning the ‘medical report’ on Mohd Saiful Bukhari who had earlier claimed that he was sodomised by Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.
Abdul Latif Ahmad said the penalties were provided for under the Private Healthcare Facilities and Services Act 1998.
Furthermore, disciplinary action could also be taken by the Malaysian Medical Council (MMC) against the doctor involved in the incident because issuing the report to the public went against the professional ethics of a medical practitioner, he said.

His lawyer, Sivarasa Rasiah, said even if Anwar is charged now, it would not legally prevent him from running in the election unless he is convicted before nomination or voting day – YAHOO ASIA NEWS

I hope there is enough time for Anwar to go through the by-election before the court convicts him.

Once Anwar has won the seat and becomes the opposition leader and is jailed. We then have the following comparison:
Aung San Suu Kyi – the authorities, fearing they may lose power, put her under house arrest on the pretext she is a trouble maker.
Anwar – the authorities, fearing they may lose power, put him in jail on the pretext he is a sodomizer.
PR supporters can then request the UN to impose sanctions on leaders of the ruling party.

“This man pleads for justice,” Abdullah said. “We care about (Anwar) more than we care about this man? That is very odd. He needs justice; that is what he is crying for. We cannot ignore that.”
What about the rights of the accused? What about his constitutional rights?
Surely as PM he must have been advised by his Law Minister the meaning of the ‘rebuttable presumption of innocence’! Does he not realize that he has by that statement alone usurped the role of the courts in determining the guilt or otherwise of an accused person?

I find Abdullah and his entire administration is full of lies, manipulation and dishonesty thus they have lost their credibility as leaders of this country. I say this for valid reasons:-
Let us look at a different scenario. Supposing that this is no about sodomy but a murder. Someone’s life is at stake. Wrongly accusing him could result his life. There is crucial evidence for the public and police to believe the accused could be innocent.
Now, under these circumstances we naturally expect our police to behave more responsibly. The police should go all out assuring public they would revisit all areas of investigation to ensure the accused is not victimized under no circumstances. But none of this took place. What the police did was:-
1) Quickly came out refuting the new found evidence. Not only that they also claimed it was fabrication even after the hospital admitted the report was genuine.
2) The health minister claimed he would stick to KL Hospitals’ report. (He basically slapped himself saying the GPs or private hospitals cannot be trusted)
3) The DG of health ministry says it was breach patience’s confidentiality. (The DG too ignored to observe the relevance of the medical report which could vindicate the accused)
4) Lastly Pusrawi comes out claiming the test done on Saiful was not sodomy related.( isn’t this an utter lie when they know for the fact thousands of doctors both in Malaysia and overseas would be looking at thus it would be a disgrace to themselves)
May I ask this government and their institutions, is this the way you plan to create knowledge based Malaysians; is this how you measure the Malaysians intelligence. To take on man out of politic must you make millions in this country stupid?
It is not worth it Mr.Prime Minister. By the end of this case we Malaysians regardless what position or background us have would be regarded only as spineless substandard individuals who do not dignity.

#13 by mediadirect on Thursday, 31 July 2008 - 11:12 pm
i have a guess here…the police will arrest anwar tomorrow and lock him up for few days and then straight to court and jail.
when did malaysia have constitutional rights in the first place? in my opinion, anwar should have produce the leakage medical report when he is formally charge in court. when he announce so should he merely give umno the opportunity to twist and turn the facts.
#14 by monsterball on Thursday, 31 July 2008 - 11:13 pm
Dollah said he cannot ignore Saiful..asking for justice.
Yet….he ignored millions of Malaysians…asking him to drop the case.
He ignored world leaders.. opinions..asking same thing.

///“This man pleads for justice,” Abdullah said. “We care about (Anwar) more than we care about this man? That is very odd. He needs justice; that is what he is crying for. We cannot ignore that.”///– PM AAB
PM AAM implies that all Malaysians are entitled to justice, it is just that they have to line up so that justice can be served to them in turn. Saiful now gets top priority. The other 26 million can wait.
Sodomy charge is the last desperate effort to stop Anwar from becoming PM. When Anwar becomes PM, AAB is the first to lose his interests. AAB’s interest ought to be protected first. So, Saiful’s justice is tied to AAB’s interest, and possibly many others who imagine that they would suffer when Anwar becomes the PM.
Two medical reports are said not to be able to conclude that Saiful was sodomised, hours before he lodged the police report. Should the police use so much resources to investigate based on hearsay. Nobody was killed. Was Saiful’s justice suddenly became very important because DPM Najib was consulted by Saiful on what he should do before lodging police report? So Najib could have stopped the hearsay if he had wanted. But Najib denied meeting Saiful, but later admitted that he discussed sodomy with Saiful. Was the initital denial linked to his own interest when he could not be honest, and the later admission was decided upon because it fits his plans?
#20 by Orang Malaysia on Thursday, 31 July 2008 - 11:26 pm
I read today that the police have passed over the papers to the AG and that it is the prerogative of the AG whether to charge Anwar or not. I do not understand this. If the police findings are such that they have evidence to support their case, then why is there a need for the AG to make a decision? And if they do not, then declare the case closed. Why is it that the AG must decide ‘whether to charge’ – does this mean that there are other cases where evidence is found against them but perhaps the AG just holds them back for whatever reason (maybe on the instructions of the PM who wants to use it as a way to control certain people?).
It is such things that now make me live in fear in Malaysia. The police choose who they wish to protect and now seem to work on the basis of guilty until proven innocent. When various parties come forward with evidence which happens to support the accused, the police ‘attack’ them rather than be fair and investigate the evidence. In other words, no matter what evidence is given to the police which helps in the defence of the accused, they just do not care about it! As far as they are concerned, the only evidence they will accept is that which provides them with further confirmation of the accusation.
What has happened to our police ethics and professionalism??? How can we ever trust them again to be fair? In future, if my daughter is raped by some ‘VIP’ who has influence, can I be assured that the police will investigate fairly or simply keep searching for evidence that finds the rapist VIP innocent and when they can’t, they will just say that the case is ‘ongoing’. Or when they are forced to pass the papers to the AG, he will exercise his prerogative to defer charging the VIP.
You can see where all this is leading too – the police have now lost all their credibility so for Malaysia, it is a sad day.

It is not at all surprising Pak Lah will declare emergency rule this time because the protest by the people is going to be several times bigger than that of 1998 (judging from the number of Anwar supporters in the Tsunami 308 election results).
Such big scale of protest is beyond the control of the police. The only way is to declare emergency rule.

Everybody including the Prime Minister rush to protect Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan. Why is he so precious ? According to the news, Saiful went to see the doctor for pain in his ass. If it was just that, then it could be any common medical condition. Why should he or anyone say that, that is a sodomy case ? Then from another angle. That doctor is a Muslim but the news did not say that he is a Malaysian. Why not a Malaysian ? Why not a Malay ? Why not a Malaysian Malay Muslim male doctor ?
Regarding the UMNO-PAS talk. The UMNO or BN does not encourage its’ supporters to have any relationship with the opposition. Why is UMNO sitting and having tea with PAS ? Even though it is about Islam and Malay ?

Save your breath fellows. It’s really useless to present any kind of arguments or justifications with the current authorities. All will fall on death ears. What is needed is nothing short of “people’s power” to topple this corrupt administration that has a TOTAL grip on the Executive (government), the Legislature (parliament) and the Judiciary (courts). That grip has to be broken then only will the country survive as a democracy. Otherwise, GOD (or Agung) is our only hope and savior for now.
#27 by alwaysfair on Thursday, 31 July 2008 - 11:49 pm
Badawi said ” do we care more for Anwar than this man? This man pleads for justice.”
In fact the govt. care more for this man than Anwar. Because he admitted he committed sodomy yet is not jailed but Anwar was arrested by 15 truckloads of policemen and thrown in jail. His name is Anwar not Osama.
In fact Anwar pleads for justice more than this man.
Distortion of justice to protect one’s own position has infected Bodowi and this time if he jailed Anwar he has crossed the line…the fall of the UMNO regime..definite in next GE.
Hope all of them sink in the stinking UMno ship overloaded with rakyat’s wealth,corruption and injustices and will never rise up again to see the light of day…. forever banished from the rakyat and Allah….then dawn will break over this land.

THE SODOMY POETRY – a must for all history students
Dr.M said,” Let me tell you a about a conspiracy.
I invented it and it is called sodomy,
I used this as a weapon to punish my enemy,
It was so sucessful as you can see,
You can always use my invention for free,
It is very effective, 100% guarantee,
Try it again and you will see,
Nobody will call you again a bodowi,
When you are successful come and thank me,
I am so ingenious there’s no doubt i will be
Even more famous than Bapa Malaysia in history
He is only famous for setting our country free,
I am even more famous as Bapa Sodomy.

This is not the end but, the beginning of many more dirty tricks to follow. If Anwar is charged, this is a war between the rakyat and the crooked govt, it may explode into our streets.
Quoting the PM, ““Why should (protests) get out of hand? That would be very unbecoming of the party that intends to be the government of Malaysia – to take laws into their own hands and demonstrate as they wish.”
Mr Prime Minister, it is our democratic rights to protest if justice is abused. It is our duty as good citizens of this country to demand for fair play and justice restored. In your conscience, and also, a God fearing muslim, can you honestly tell the rakyat that arresting Anwar was just or was it a political conspiracy?
#33 by milduser on Friday, 1 August 2008 - 12:05 am
PK lawyer, Sivarasa Rasiah, said “even if Anwar is charged now, it would not legally prevent him from running in the election unless he is convicted before nomination or voting day”. Is this lawyer an idealist or realist? Yes, what he said is true if this is a law abiding country, where the rule of law is supreme, not on paper only but in practice. Events of the pass few months since march suggest that our beloved country has somehow lost the rule of law. So take back your words, Mr Sivarasa. The law that will be applied will be the ISA! Just watch and see if I am wrong!

why ignore the many Malaysians who are asking for swift investigation and justice on the Lingam case Mr.PM. you mean saiful case is more important than all of us..maybe you don’t want to fix the judiciary until Anwar’s sodomy II.
PM you are full of lies and yet you say you area good muslim. Where is the IPCMC you promised. where is the judiciary reform you promised. where is the ACA reform you promised.all these is what the Malaysians want.Mr.PM you being a good muslim should know that you need to keep promises that you made. and some was made on a manifesto…is this a good muslim…maybe to is an Islam Hadhari thing. and don’t say you need more time cos if you can’t do it over 4 years, you will not be able to do it as we can see. you are all NATO!!

PK lawyer, Sivarasa Rasiah, said “even if Anwar is charged now, it would not legally prevent him from running in the election unless he is convicted before nomination or voting day”.
This is correct. Anwar can contest even from jail as long as he hasn’t been convicted yet. The Election Commission must call a by-election within 60 days. I don’t think they can convict Anwar that fast.
But once convicted, he will have to give up his seat. But all is not lost because there’s the 3 appeal process with 3 judges per appeal. The trial is sure to be a farce so any honest judge will overturn it. Unlike Mahathir’s time, the climate of fear is gone and I don’t think they can buy all the judges.
When the trial is over, Malaysia will join the ranks of banana republics and international pariahs like Myanmar and Zimbabwe. There will be no more respect for the PM, DPM, the Police, the AG, the Judiciary and all those involved. The economy will be dragged down. Be prepared for a rough ride.

Yes, they instigate, intimidate, threaten, provoke openly hoping the pend up frustration of the people will spill into the streets. Then they have a reason to apply the ISA. “Don’t worry, no emergency rule”, says Bodowi, “just ISA. That will do, and people will be calm and wait for the due process of law. Be patient.

For the beloved PM and all of the current UMNO’s muslim,
Please read on the following’s pantun and sincerely asked yourself, in the end of the day, is it really “worth” it?
Dua tiga kucing berlari,
Mana kan sama si kucing belang,
Dlm bnyk2 Perdana Menteri,
Mahukah diingati sbg Bapa “Temberang”…
Buai laju2,
Sampai pokok rhu,
Nampak “alim” mcm x tahu,
Disangka “lena” rakyat ditipu…
Siakap selama,
Gelama ikan duri,
Mengapa harus menghalalkan cara,
Apakah ini ajaran “Hadhari”…
Dalam semak ada duri,
Ayam kuning buat sarang,
Amanah diberi wahai Perdana Menteri,
Bukan utk mengkhianati rakyat terbilang…
Pisang emas dibawa belayar,
Masak sebiji di atas peti,
Mengapa diikut hati yg ingkar,
Bersultan di mata beraja di hati…
Berakit-rakit ke hulu,
Berenang-renang ke tepian,
Jangan dilupa “janji” terdahulu,
Selagi hayat dikandung badan…
Kalau ada sumur di ladang,
Boleh hamba menumpang mandi,
Mengapa diturut hati yang walang,
Mahu ke mana selepas mati…
Nasi lemak buah bidara,
Sayang selasih ku lurutkan,
Islam bukan sekadar nama,
Iman, Amal dan Ehsan mesti sehaluan…
Kajang pak malau kajang berlipat,
Kajang hamba mengkuang lalu,
Hidup ini sekadar tempat,
Untuk diuji segala tingkah dan laku…
Puas saya menanam ubi,
Nenas juga ditanam orang,
Janganlah lupa hakikat diri,
Suatu hari kita ttp kan “pulang”…
Masam manis buah kuini,
Jangan melampau makan x sudah,
Mahu ke mana tamak begini,
Apa boleh dibawa ke alam barzah…
Tuai padi antara masak,
Esok jangan layu-layuan,
Kalau tersilap langkah dirombak,
Jangan diteruskan hingga panasaran…
Naik sampan nak ke seberang,
Pergi bersama dgn si dara,
Jangan biarkan diri jadi pertualang,
Pada rakyat sendiri dan juga negara…
Burung terbang diatas perigi,
Sampan kolek penuh kelapa,
Pujuklah hati insaflah diri,
Sebelum datangnya lima perkara…
Buah delima tingalnya satu,
Tempat bersarang semut dan kerengga,
Di dunia ini boleh menipu,
Di dunia sana bolehkah berbicara…
Hamba bukan menggantung walang,
Cuma terniang bunyi senandung,
Jangan terus berhati dalang,
Rugi x sudah tiada beruntung…
Masak kari ikan sembilang,
Boleh dimakan di hujung minggu,
Bagaimana gerangan tuan menghalang,
Bila “Izrail” datang bertamu…
Baik-baik meniti bendang,
Tanah yang lecak licin sekali,
Dikala itu semuanya akan terbayang,
Apakah berbaloi “pengorbanan” sebegini…

If PKR leader Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail had resigned as Permatang Pauh member of parliament to pave way for Anwar to contest in byelection for the seat and if Anwar’s arrest to be charged for Sodomy II is most imminent, who is going to lead the charge as “Opposition Head/leader” in Dewan Rakyat to raise and debate the burning issues of the day????
YB Kit I suggest you resume the position as Opposition Head that you made way for Dr Wan Azizah, and Anwar coming after her.
We can’t have an Opposition without a leader in Parliament in the tumultuous times ahead. Surely you don’t expect any of PAS leaders to asiume that mantle. If Paktan Rakyat gives them half an opportunity they will seize it to advance their theocratic agenda and profile in Parliament.

Will DSAI get arrested within 48 hours?
For police to submit their completed investigations to AG implies the probability that they think they have a prima facie case to sustain an arrest and charge.
Whether AG will so charge will depend in part on whether he agrees with the police’s assessment that there is a case and in part the political calculations of the government of pros and cons in proceeding against DSAI.
Whether it would be within 48 hours depends on AG’s judgment as stated.
Will there be a big demonstration if DSAI were arrested?
Possible though not that likely. PKR’s supporters may want to demonstrate but how big that will be will depend on PAS and its supporters who are the better organized and the ready of the lot for such streets demonstrations. [Of late PAS has distanced itself from Anwar and some of its leaders are even talking with UMNO on Malay unity]. So PM’s assessment that his arrest is unlikely to provoke widespread demonstrations warranting an emergency rule is likely the probable case.
Will an arrest of DSAI affect his contesting in by-election for the Permatang Pauh parliamentary seat?
Not likely since being arrested and charged does not mean a person is guilty and as long as not convicted he is still eligible to be MP, isn’t it the case??
However this is really a do or die Kamikaze mission on DSAI’s part because the BN will want to treat Permatang Pauh for DSAI as the “Waterloo” for Napoleon and conceivably much “fire power” (money) will be brought in to defeat DSAI once and for all.
Notwithstanding, in the short run, an arrest/sodomy charge will likely provoke a surge of sympathy that will enhance the already good chances of DSAI winning the Permatang Pauh parliamentary seat.
On BN’s side much depends on whether it could dig up something convincingly unsavory in the period running from Datin Azizah resignation to polling date of the by-election as presribed under the rules.
Otherwise once wining the by-election and being ensconced in Parliament, DSAI will take the battle from there against his BN’s nesmesises during the whole period of the trial.
It will a battle royale not only in the courts of law but the Court of Public Opinion, both domestic and international,which at this moment is still overwhelmingly tilted in favour of DSAI.
It will be a long haul – this arrest/charging business.
Once started, it would not end soon. There will, for sure, be peremptory challenges by Anwar’s lawyers on whether there is proper exercise of prosecutorial powers in light of medical reports evincing no sodomy; whether double jeopardy applies in Azizan/Saiful’s case, then the trial proper will, like that Altantuya Shaaribuu’s case drag for months end; even on conviction, there will be appeal to Court of Appeal and thereafter further to Federal Court by the conclusion of which it would be way past the hand over of power date (in 2010 from number 1 to no. 2).
The arrest/trial will signify not the end but the beginning of the real political tussle struggle and game as each side will via proxies will dig out as much dirty linen against the other side – which in a perverted way is a significant factor bearing on political will to continue prosecution or drop it, as the case proceeds along.
Meanwhile Malaysia will once again seize international notoriety and media attention for the wrong reasons – instead of stained mattress, there will be stained dildo, CCTV footages, etc
Side by side with Altantuya Shaaribuu’s case, the world will think that Malaysian politics is steeped in scandals whether sex (natural or the unnatural kind, murder most foul, bribery, kickbacks and hidden “war chest” with which to wage political battles. It is not going to help the economy in such globally challenging times….

An opinion poll conducted between 4 July 08 to 14 July 08 showed only 42% of those took part in the poll were satisfied with AAB’s performance (as compared to 61% before the 12th GE) and 34% agreed Najis would be a good PM after power transfer.
62% believed savings derived from restructured fuel subsidies would benefit the political elite and only 23% believed the savings benefited the people.
The results of the opinion poll suggest BN is in crisis. PR’s no confidence vote against the PM is justifiable.

Wow, if only the police force was just as fast on the other cases. With other case having more evidence that this sodomy mk II, I am surprise that the speed of the investigation. I am sure if there was a survey done on how many people had to wait for years for police investigation to be completed, we would find that cases like Anwar is very “fast”.
I am slowly losing my respect for the Malaysia law enforcers – it only goes to show that the PDRM is not independent and subjected to political pressure.

Every word that they utter stinks of cruelty, lies , cowardice . That’s my feeling when I read the papers and watch TV news .Does DSAI stand a chance against the whole government machinery that appears geared towards his annihilation. Even doctors and hospitals fear the seemingly altruistic Private Hospitals and Services Act – no thanks to Dr. Chuah Soi Lek . Many people are truly worried that this time DSAI might get worse than that Black Eye . We hope not . If it should happen, he would have no recourse to justice. But Saiful must have justice ! Saiful speaks the truth ! Doctors tell lies . RPK tells stories to entertain bloggers . The PI’s first SD is false. The second one is true . We are back to the dark ages of the last 2 decades . We have all misplaced our trust in 2004. How could we be so wrong ?

YB Lim, you ask us to give an impression on PM Abdullah’s words. Are you joking, YB? No one in this blog trust a single word he says. He is a serial liar.
Secondly, for a PM to comment on Saiful is really stupid. I want to use nicer words but I can’t find it. He can’t, he shouldn’t, he must not.
Why didn’t he comment on his DPM’s “I do not know Saiful; I have never met Saiful; I met him, but we talked about his scholaship; We discussed about his future.”
There had never been a time in Malaysia’s history where the people had completely lost confidence in its leadership and administration.

Waitress raped after terror ride
PETALING JAYA: A waitress was raped after she was abducted and taken on a terror ride early yesterday morning.
It is learnt that the victim had gone with her boyfriend to meet two of his friends at a shoplot in Sunway Mentari at 5.45am.
The woman, in her 30s, was sitting in her boyfriend’s car while he was talking to his friends outside when three men armed with parangs approached them.
Two of them robbed the boyfriend and his friends of their belongings while the third got into the car and sped off with the woman as her boyfriend and his friends watched helplessly.
Ten minutes later, the robber stopped at an isolated place and raped her.
He then left her by a roadside and sped off with her belongings.
Passers-by took her to a police station where she lodged a report.
Petaling Jaya district police chief Asst Comm Arjunaidi Mohammed confirmed the case but declined to comment.

The ruling BN is in its last days. You may hate TDM but he is one smart cookie. He knows it. That is why he resigned and jumped ship. Usually, under time-honored tradition, the Captain of any sinking ship will perform all his duties to ensure everyone’s safety before he abandons the ship. But TDM knew that time is running out and he better save his own honor. At least when the inevitable event takes place, he can have the satisfaction of saying “I told you so”. BN has only 1 card left to play in this high-stake game. And that is to FRAME DSAI on Sodomy charge. They thought they were smart but they have forgotten that in this Nation, you still find citizens, common people just like you and I, who will still stand up and be counted. Take RPK. This is one person as rare as a 100-carat Red Ruby. In 200 years of our history, I haven’t come across a man like that. It takes a man of rare character and distinction to sacrifice his comfort, forgo fame and fortune, rise above religion and race, spit at money, a TRUE PATRIOT OF MALAYSIA to do what he did. His BLOG is the defining blog at this crossroad for our Nation. Today, we find common citizens doing their job and giving the truth to RPK. The CRITICAL PIECE of evidence revealed by Dr. Mohamed Osman cannot be ignored now by any Court of Law. I have met practicing GP doctors and those working in A&E wards and all told me the same thing. That report is as good as any report on the patient. DSAI must engaged the best brains to defend him. A brilliant lawyer can tear the prosecution to bits. I am cautiously confident that DSAI may win this impending legal battle and ultimately win the Permatang Pauh’s election and take his rightly place as our PM. His supporters must have the patience to ride this turbulence out. No need to resort to any violence and street protests. NGO’s, foreign diplomats and responsible organizations can play their part by boycotting government events. I for one will do that. I will not be going to Dataran merdeka this year and will prefer to fly my flag in my own home and ignore any Government functions. Stay positive everyone. we will get the Government we all deserve one day. That day will come in the form of GE13.

“Whether AG will so charge will depend in part on whether he agrees with the police’s assessment that there is a case…” Jeffrey
The police merely investigates. Once they complete their investigation on a case, they will forward their ‘bundle’ to the Attorney General who then decides if there is enough evidence to prosecute. It is his call – not that of the police or the IGP. The police do not deal with legal issues like whether there is enough evidence.

According to a medical expert, the police cannot ignore Dr Mohamed Osman’s report especially if it conflicts with another medical examination done at the Hospital Kuala Lumpur (HKL) several hours later.
“Dr Mohamed Osman’s observation showed no obvious physical evidence to support such a claim which could raise a reasonable doubt if the doctor in HKL observed the opposite…,” said the doctor who has years of experience in handling rape and sodomy cases.
“Dr Mohamed Osman is experienced enough and couldn’t be wrong not to notice the obvious signs like bruises, tenderness, swellings, scratch marks, fissure and bleeding per rectal and so on,” said the doctor who requested anonymity.
“To associate tenesmus with sodomy, the complaint has to come after the event, and there would be evidence of injury to the anal mucosa like fissure or scar should be seen (to cause the pain) and there may be also some traces of blood seen.”
But she said that since Saiful had alleged that he was sodomised two days before he was physically examined, it would be “almost impossible” to have any trace of material for DNA identification be available unless he used the same underwear that was not washed since the alleged event.
“There would be impossible also to find any recognisable material for DNA identification as well. Thus, asking for a fresh DNA sample is highly questionable because it is not a fresh sodomy/rape case where the evidence is still available.”
Another medical expert told Malaysiakini that based on Mohamed Osman’s medical report, Saiful had complained about being assaulted by a piece of plastic.
“There cannot be a charge of sodomy unless there is actual contact between the penis and anus. If an object was used, then the charge has to be assault,” said the retired medical doctor who had carried out medical examination involving rape cases in a government hospital.

#69 by Godfather on Friday, 1 August 2008 - 9:46 am
Crying for justice ? Look at the sequence of events – Saiful seeks help from DPM at his residence (wow !), goes to Hospital Pusrawi, told that there are no signs of sodomy, goes to HKL, then makes a police report against DSAI, then Saiful’s bride-to-be suddenly starts her own blog, then the government asks for “fresh” DNA sample and puts Saiful into protective custody.
The accused can’t even get a copy of the police report. Some sources say that Saiful claimed to have been sodomised not once, but 8 times. There are dates, times, venues which can be colloborated or debunked.
What does this look like to the man in the street ? What does this look like to international observers ? Saiful is the aggrieved party ?

YOU ARE WRONG undergrad2! Let me rephrase for you:
The Malaysia police merely fabricate. Once they complete the dotted lines on a case, they will forward their fabrication to the Attorney General who then ensure if the “evidences” are water tight enough and good for prosecution. It is not his call – not that of the police or the IGP but the conspirators of UMNO. The police and the AG chambers will act according to the bidding of their political masters.

its time to reclaim the country from the corrupts and imbeciles.
and dont just be an arm chair critic. time to get the butt out of your chair. 4 years from now is not too long. being a democratic country, the best way to get rid of these corrupts is to vote them out. get your immdeiate families registered as voters. talk to your friends and encourage them to also talk to their friends to register. nothing is more powerful than the vote in a dmeocratic country. when the election day comes, exercise our rights.
perceptibly, the vital insitutions are seen to be compromised and corrutped. it was the judiciary, the police, the AG office, the ACA. Now, the hospitals are also being politicised. by voting hem out, thats the only way to reclaim the country. theer’s not much time coz once the country is at the brink of falling into the abyss. once there, its going to be horribly difficult to climb out.

Mr sj (at 10.57.56), your questions:
Even in worse case scenario, rules of law would still apply. If Anwar was jailed for 8 years for false conviction in 1998, what make you think he would be jailed forever now?
Secondly, emergency does not signal perpetuating Abdullah Ahmad Badaei’s regime. The army takes over and military rules. International community would come in. Dissolving parliament is not for opposition only. It also applies to the BN.

Instead of taking care of internal security, preventing crimes and many other important jobs, Syed Hamid had the time to “search” for evidence all for the purpose of convicting DSAI for sodomy. It is a disgrace for the Home Minister and for all the “boo-boos” he had committed, the immediate thing for him to consider is to “letak jawatan”. He has failed as a Home Minister!!!!

“This man pleads for justice,” Abdullah said. “We care about (Anwar) more than we care about this man? That is very odd. He needs justice; that is what he is crying for. We cannot ignore that.”…
Yeah, Bodowi, you care more about Anwar than that silly idiot as*****, because you are definite that once Dato Seri take over your place, you and all your cronies will be dead meat. Hell loose!
The RAKYAT is not stupid as you think, go and sleep more. We should give what the sleepy beauty wants!

“This man pleads for justice,” Abdullah said. “We care about (Anwar) more than we care about this man? That is very odd. He needs justice; that is what he is crying for. We cannot ignore that.”
This man, formerly known as Mr Clean has quite a mean streak in him. The above statement and the the one he made after being appointed DPM to replace Anwar in 1998 in a press conference (You-tube, Foreign Correspondence) only shows his well-hidden intentions. After a long while we did not hear from him and when he came out with that AP statement, it only shows of BN unflinching aim of discrediting Anwar.
We would have thought the Cabinet Ministers, PM included, would have been admonished by advisors to consider the flack Malaysia is facing public relations wise throughout the world. But his remarks only showed BN’s perennial follies.

The revelation that SAC II Mohd Rodwan has been meeting Saifool for 9 times including the most recent one at a hotel room before the sodomy report is another significant eye-opener. Rodwan is the police officer who had illegally removed DNA samples from forensic custody in the Sodomy I case in 1998.
#101 by ch on Friday, 1 August 2008 - 1:25 pm
Dear All,
I concur with YB Lim’s view that Anwar will soon be arrested and the sodomy charge thrown at him. While he can be charged but chances are he may not be convicted. Anwar will use the fabrication theory in a wider and more solid manner if the AG Chambers decides not to charge him. So either way he will be charged and given a chance to be heard and fight out his case.
This would severely dampened his quest to take over the government by Sept 16. He might even be standing the by election in jail if bail is not allowed.

Just thinking about our future generation. Come 500 years from now, our future great great grand childrens in school studying Malaysian History on past Prime Ministers since independence. Comes our Datuk Seri Anwar bin Ibrahim the 6th PM, how he was rediculed and jailed and tortured and worst of all the charges applied on him, the worst there can be, a sodomy charge.
Imagine , what the future generations will think of their forefathers and the dirty politics applicable to downgrade a good man seeking justice for the people.
The history of Langkawi, hmmm.
Just give this a thought. Worth pondering.

“Even in worse case scenario, rules of law would still apply. If Anwar was jailed for 8 years for false conviction in 1998, what make you think he would be jailed forever now?
Secondly, emergency does not signal perpetuating Abdullah Ahmad Badaei’s regime. The army takes over and military rules. International community would come in. Dissolving parliament is not for opposition only. It also applies to the BN.
Personally, I think you must ask questions with some thinking first, okay.” by oknyua
Dear oknyua, yes I have thought it through. Frankly, I think you should not down play threats from BN. Havent the Myanmmar incident taught us enough? International community would not be able to move in much if it does, Aung San Suu Kyi would have be free long time ago. So do not just rely on international community.
Also emergency rule, does not necessary mean that army will take over. Currently Najib is the minister of defence and the controls of army falls on his shoulder. In case of emergency, although the status of minister will not mean much, will the loyalty of the army be 100% on our Agong? Remember there was a news surfacing not too long ago where a general came out and made an announcement regarding this matter in Malaysia Today.
You have seen how these BN goons behave right? Especially before March 8th election even with Parliament dissolved, these goons are still behaving like they are in power and own the country. So that is why I mentioned, what will the Rakyat do then when the time comes?

one more question… how do they decide if a case should be under normal court or under syariah?
I remember last time there is this family whose father had just passed away, then one of the son who had converted to Islam came back and claim that his father converted to Islam too, and the case was heard at a syariah court.
just curious… why they don’t bring Anwar case to Syariah court instead?
#111 by taiking on Friday, 1 August 2008 - 2:25 pm
The ball is now in AG’s court. To charge or not to charge. That is the question.
The main consideration would be (only a guess) the report by the doctor-on-the-run.
What to make of it?
It cannot now be swept under the carpet.
And to say that the medical exam there was for something else and therefore the report is not relevant to a case on sodomy and so it need not be tendered as evidence in court, will not get the prosecution anywhere.
First, quite apart from the fact that the prosecution has a duty to disclose the report, the burden of s.142(g) would weigh down upon their sholders if they do not.
If disclosed, the question on relevancy would almost certainly come into the picture. For the prosecution would not want the court to take the report into consideration for the reason that it is irrelevant. Two things may be said:
(1) The relevance of a piece of fact to a case is an issue for the court to consider and decide. No elaboration is needed on this point which is quite self-evident.
(2) The purpose for which a certain fact was discovered is not usually a material consideration. Lets analyse this point. X suffered a broken nose years ago which his current doctor took note of as “old nasal fracture”. But X’s visit to the doctor has nothing to do with the fracture. He has a cold for which he needed some cold medicine. Does the true purpose of X’s visit to the doctor (i.e. for treatment of his cold) have the effect of turning the doctor’s observation of X’s “nasal fracture” into a factual fallacy? Obviously no. The broken nose is true and real. This fact will remain a constant no matter the purpose for; or the circumstances under, which it was discovered or noted. For the same reason, the notation “broken nose” made by X’s school teacher in, say, X’s physical education record would also stand as a testimony of X’s nasal injury.
The observation as recorded in the medical report will stand as a statement of fact on the state and condition of the complainant’s anus, from the medical standpoint. This cannot be denied. This fact is of direct relevance the sodomy charge. Torn skin and tissues must be expected if sodomy took place. And the absence of torn anus could go to disprove the charge of sodomisation; or at least to cast doubt on the charge. Hence for anwar the report is crucially important.
AG would be stuck on this case. To charge or not to charge?

Whether to proceed with the case against Anwar or not is now with the Solicitor General, not the AG’s Chambers – according to Badawi. However, I tend to believe that the AG, the IGP, Syed Hamid and the Kera Jantan are all holed up at Mike Tyson’s house in Kelana Jaya to decide whether to proceed or not. If the Solicitor General does not want to toe the line, then he will be replaced by someone who will.
Then we will have the spectacle on who the investigating officers will be, who the prosecutor will be, who the judge will be, who the doctors and DNA experts will be……
#114 by Al-Hujraat_13 on Friday, 1 August 2008 - 3:12 pm
Definitely AG will charged. Their only allegiance is to satisfy their political masters, not the rakyat or the nation. They have been “prostituting” their profession and their morale conscience just for the sake of material gains…
Definitely, the AG will proceed with the charge!
After so many years under PM Abdullah, I think most of us have realized that the man cannnot be trusted on his words. When he tells somthing, more often than not, he means it on the opposite way! “Work with me, not work for me” is now being clearly understood as “Work for me, not with me”. “The price of fuel will not be increase” actually means that “The price of fuel will be increase”. The lists goes on…
If there is an award for telling lies on the job for a PM, Abdullah would have won it hands down…
So, when PM Abdullah was quoted of saying:
(i) “I don’t think we are going down that road; definitely not,”;
>>> That means he knows that we’re indeed goind down the road but unfortunately he has a lot at stakes so he couldn’t care less…
(ii)“Why should (protests) get out of hand? That would be very unbecoming of the party that intends to be the government of Malaysia – to take laws into their own hands and demonstrate as they wish.”;
>>> That means he is actually hoping and counting for the protest to get out of hand. He is actually counting for it in order for him to proceed with the next agenda. So be wary for any provocateurs from the ranks of undercovered police personnel. Definitely, they will try to stage a riots where emergency rule will be declared…
(iii) “This man pleads for justice,” Abdullah said. “We care about (Anwar) more than we care about this man? That is very odd. He needs justice; that is what he is crying for. We cannot ignore that.”;
>>> Translated into “This in not about justice, it’s all about to take the man down. We DO NOT GIVE A DAMNED about Anwar and we will proceed at all cost”…
Call me a sceptics, or whatever but I do think that this PM Abdullah is much more dangerous that TDM in a sense that he always play a “dirty” in a very discreet manner. “Baling batu, sembunyi tangan…” In this sense, TDM is more honorable as he does not hide behind his actions.
But PM Abdullah, purposesly potrays an image of an “idiot” who always seems to be “sleeping” on the job, but in reality he is NOT! It’s not a mere coincidence TDM picks him as DPM and that he is now a PM. He must be credited for what he do best. He is a great scheamer and his mind is always up to something. The best part is that he do it in a discreet manner and “patience” is his forte.
Just wait and see…

undergrad2 said: “The police merely investigates. Once they complete their investigation on a case, they will forward their ‘bundle’ to the Attorney General who then decides if there is enough evidence to prosecute. It is his call – not that of the police or the IGP. The police do not deal with legal issues like whether there is enough evidence.”
Then the AG must declare the case closed and charges dropped if there is insufficient evidence or he decides not to do anything. He cannot just sit on a case indefinitely and hope that someday, there will be new evidence to start charges. That sort of blackmail is immoral. One wonders how many cases passed to the AG remain in his drawer, available to those in power to use whenever someone is ‘troublesome’, reminding them that at any time, things can be ‘revived’ so they better shut up and behave themselves.

To bring the fuel prices down immediately.
That is typical of you, Kit,without telling the people what was the international price when the stupid BN put up the fuel prices then. And how much is the international oil price is to day, why ? Yes the oil price has come down but by how much since the prices were increased ? How come you forgot to mention all these.
I am not saying that AAB is right to put the fuel prices, just for once let us be fair,do not argue just to score political points,which is what you always do, bark like a mad dog and that surely is not appreciated and respected.
Why can’t you argue like the late Dr.Tan Chee Koon (he was also a member of the opposition) and still get respected by all the people. Even as an opposition M.P. he was awarded, not many opposition members get awarded, not to mention as a Tan Sri . Also how come he was never arrested and jailed ? So stop barking like a mad dog!
You forgot that AI once asked the Malaysian Chinese (including you) to all go back to China and also what did he do for the non Malays when he was in the cabinet ?
He has said and ‘done’ many things lately but never once said he is sorry for what he did even once. Kevin Rudd, the Australian P.M. apologised to the abrogines and get respected for this, up till to day.
Surely the people have the right to know what he has said and done when he was in the cabinet and where he is, now that he wants the people support to be the next P.M.on these issues.
Like millions of Malaysian I too want a change of this racist BN Government and like choosing a wife I do not want to choose one with a very recent questionable past. I am no saint, I can forgive but surely not forget.
It was not so long ago, when you take away the six years when he was in jail and did not have the chance to say anything on these issues but surely long enough to apologise for his past. Has he really changed ? I do not wish to regret of my choice.

Facts and ‘Hearsays’ about Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan and his ‘Sodomy Victim’ claim.
1. His Is a young, tall strong 23 year-old man
-for sodomy to take place involving a young, strong man – its take two to TANGO…. could it e forced on him…..many times?
2.He was a Student Leader when he was Studying in UNITEN.
-A student leader at university level -should have certain level of self confident and emotional strength – could he allow somebody ‘rape’ or focefully ‘sodomise’ him ? and ‘many times!’
3.He has seen with 3 ‘unidentified person’ which have striking resemblance with top UMNO leaders – Najib Abd Razak, Datuk Azalina Othman and Datuk Shahril.
4. Najib claimed that Saiful has met him to get a Scholarship
– Saiful was a University drop out from Universiti Tenaga Nasional
– His CGPA was lower than 2.00 (anyone is willing to give ‘a scholarship’ to category of students?).
5. Pusrawi Hospital’s Dr Mohamed Osman Abdul Hamid reported that Saiful was never being sodomised -4 hours before he made the Police report
…..Dr Mohd Osman is a qualified doctor….even as a General Practitioner , a doctor normally are sufficiently trained and have reasonable skill and knowledge to make a reasonable right observation ( Do the government hospital have SODOMY SPECIALIST’ to make a right observation?
6. and the timing of the report……. fishy?
#132 by Al-Hujraat_13 on Friday, 1 August 2008 - 8:20 pm
nge ralph,
I could understand on your doubts and understand that. But the time is not right at the moment to have doubts on the ultimate goal; to end all of the injustices done all of these years by BN. The only way of doing that is by ending their rules effectively through the GE. The only way of doing that is to move forward, not to hesitate now and neither to move backward. Ride the current wave, built the momentum and make sure that it will reflects effectively into votes in the next GE.
I’m not so much too worry on Anwar. Surely 6 years spend incarcerated inside prison has make the man to return to his senses. If he do not, we have an able-minded people like RPK, LKS, TGNA and others who would be able to play the much needed role. This country desperately needed a two party system so that there will always be a check and balance. In this sense, the differences inside PR is actually a blessing in disguise. No party should hold any dominance upon any orther parties except by respect, tolerance and mutual understanding….
It doesn’t matter who become the next PM. What matters the most is that the PM in a new era will have to be accountable for his deeds. To achieve this, the only way to go is to move forward. “Buang yg keruh, ambil yg jernih”. At the moment, the BN is very much muddied by it’s own doings. So we need to dump BN and give PR a chance. If PR makes the same mistake, God willing, we could always revert back to BN.

Orang Malaysia says,
“Then the AG must declare the case closed and charges dropped if there is insufficient evidence or he decides not to do anything. He cannot just sit on a case indefinitely and hope that someday, there will be new evidence to start charges.”
The AG’s duty is to look into the evidence to see if he could prosecute. If he feels there isn’t enough evidence to proceed he passes it back to the police to do what is required because he doesn’t want to fall foul of the double jeopardy rule and the wastage of taxpayers’ money it involves. More investigation by the police perhaps or just let it gather dust – in high profile cases with political ramifications, to await ‘further instructions from the top’. It is not the AG’s duty to have any ‘case closed’.
“He cannot just sit on a case indefinitely…”
He doesn’t sit on a case if there is not enough evidence to proceed with the prosecution. The investigation papers or the ‘bundle’ goes back to the IO to do what is required. But the AG might sit on a case though there is enough evidence to proceed. It helps him if he could read the thoughts of his political master. Otherwise he seeks verbal instructions to confirm the direction the case would have to take..
