MALAYSIAN OPPOSITION LEADER SUED FOR RM50 MILLION FOR ALLEGED SODOMY?

Thursday, August 14, 2014

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia - Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan is suing his former employer Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim for allegedly misusing his position and influence to sodomise him.

Mohd Saiful said that Anwar had ruined his good name and reputation when the opposition leader alleged that he (Mohd Saiful) had slandered him in his police report over the sodomy incident. He is seeking RM50 million in damages.

Speaking to reporters here Wednesday, Mohd Saiful's lawyer Zamri Idrus said High Court deputy registrar Norfauzani Mohd Nordin has ordered Anwar to file his defence statement by Sept 3, and set Oct 8 for case management.

Anwar's counsel Shahid Adli said that his client was served with the lawsuit last Friday.

In his lawsuit, Anwar's former aide said he had been through physical pain and suffering since 2008 as he was still accused of defaming the PKR leader.
He said he had lodged a police report here on June 28, 2008 that Anwar had sodomised him, and that he did not lie or cheat over the contents of the report.
Besides that, Mohd Saiful said the High Court had found him to be a credible witness and the finding was not disturbed by the Court of Appeal.

He said that Anwar always alleged that the police report was defamatory and false evidence whenever the PKR leader gave interviews to the media and at ceramah.

This, Mohd Saiful(photo) claimed, has caused him to be humiliated and his dignity had been ruined. He claimed that many social websites had also criticised him.

Mohd Saiful said Anwar had also filed a qazaf application at the Syariah High Court accusing him of making a false allegation against him, which received extensive coverage

in the media.

He said he suffered depression when he read negative comments against him in websites, blogs and other media.
In his statement of claim, Mohd Saiful said he started to work for Anwar in March 2008 when he was only 22 years old and served with him until June that year.
Mohd Saiful said he often travelled with Anwar during his dealings in the country and abroad.

He said he was asked to carry out various assignments as his special aide and enjoyed several privileges, such as allowances and lodgings, from Anwar.

In Mohd Saiful suit filed on June 25, he is also seeking for general, special, aggravated or exemplary damages.

The Court of Appeal had on March 7 unanimously found Anwar guilty of sodomising his former aide in 2008 and jailed him five years.

The Federal Court set Thursday for case management in Anwar's appeal against his conviction and sentence as well as the prosecution's appeal to enhance his jail term.

DESPITE HUGE RALLYS TURNOUT, VOTES NOT GUARANTEED?

Monday, April 29, 2013

PETALING JAYA, Malaysia — Opposition Leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim admitted today that the huge turnouts at Pakatan Rakyat’s (PR) rallies may not necessarily translate to votes.

The PKR de facto leader, however, said the large numbers could reflect some “measure of enthusiasm” that can be taken as a positive sign for the federal opposition pact ahead of the May 5 polls.

“Not necessarily, you are right there,” replied Anwar when asked if he felt the crowd size at PR’s nightly ceramahs could indicate growing support for the bloc.

“But the size of the crowd, it is clearly resounding. It will reflect some measures of enthusiasm because we don’t provide buses, we don’t provide free food, we don’t provide RM20 allowance and some others do,” he added.
