Sham Trial

Former deputy premier and PKR leader Anwar Ibrahim expects to be charged in court for sodomy today, a non bailable offence punishable by up to 20 years imprisonment. Read the Malaysiakini report, here.

Anwar holds prime minister Abdullah personally responsible for the damage that is about to be done to the nation and to the integrity and dignity of the Malays. He claims that his sources in the AG’s Chambers had told him that the office was against preferring any charge. However, he said the police and Abdullah’s close associates were allegedly keen on pursuing with the trial.

Abdullah has dismissed Anwar's suggestions that the impending charge was meant to sabotage the latter's campaign for the Permatang Pauh by-election, which has been set for August 26, on a weekday which is quite unprecedented and obviously meant to reduce voter turnout. "How could I insist that he be charged? If there is no evidence, the police are not stupid to charge, just because so-and-so have said ‘charge'. I'm not one to say charge," he said.

Well, I've got news for you, Pak Lah. The police are stupid indeed to proceed with what is not going to be an open and shut case, especially when you will get your deputy, the IGP and even the AG himself all fighting to salvage their careers and maintain the respect of their families and friends.

Meanwhile, Raja Petra Kamarudin of Malaysia Today has yet another shocker, "What the IGP and the AG do not know... yet". Read it, here.

Update at 1600hrs: "This is a malicious and treacherous slander, I'm not guilty," Anwar told Sessions Court judge SM Komathy Suppiah today. Read it here. The prosecution did not oppose bail and he was later released on a RM20,000 personal bond without surety.

  1. There is so much more at stake for BN. The many people who are and did walk through the alleys of UMNO, MCA and MIC these past 25 years have much to cover tracks.

    And so, in one last desperate attempt any light at the end of the tunnel must be extinguished at all costs to safe the band wagon politicians.

    Stategy: finish off DSAI.

    Poor rakyat, at this point in time appear to be losing that last light at the end of the tunnel.

    Indeed, Malaysia is very close to qualifying for admission into the ranks of several fallen nations. No?!

  3. 'Let THe Games Begin' will ring out in China & Malaysia simultaneously.

    One to celebrate, and the other to usher in another period of shame to M'sia.

    I suspect that the only reason the case is going ahead is to safe face for I Raja Polis!!

  4. Dear Captain Sir,

    When Anwar Ibrahim was charged for the same offense in 1998, Malay voters abandoned Umno/BN but Non-Malay voters saved them, this time around, there will not be any Non-Malay votes to save them .

  7. Selama 13 tahun saya berada dalam posisi menerima, membaca dan menganalisa Laporan Perubatan dari Klinik, Hospital Kerajaan dan Swasta dalam dan luar negeri sebagai tugasan rasmi saya.

    Amat jengkel dan tergelak saya membaca karangan laporan perubatan seperti yang disiarkan oleh RPK, ia djelas dikarang selepas 1hb Ogos 2008 untuk memenuhi 'selera' mereka.

    Belum ada Pegawai Perubatan di dunia ini yang akan menghasilkan laporan perubatan sebegitu buruk dan tidak mempunyai nilai nilai perubatan.

    Bacalah semula, amat melucukan..

  8. Here we go again. Round 2. Let see whether Judge SM Komathy Suppiah will live up to "high" quality set by Augustine Paul and Ariffin Jaka. Be prepared for another comedy show which might win them an international award. We will see how many times they will change the charge to suit their purpose. Last time when it was pointed out that the condo was not built yet, they amended the date. When pointed out that the condo was completed only much later, they changed the date again. And this happened with full collaboration from the judge. Under normal circumstances the judge wud have lambasted both the police and DPP for shoddy work before agreeing, if at all, to first amendment.No DPP dares to seek subsequent amendment(s). But in cases involving Anwar, he always receives "special" treatment.

    frm: ordinary treatment

  9. Kepada umat islam malaysia cuba fikirkan...

    Satu perkara nak bangkitkan di sini berkenaan FORUM MAJLIS PEGUAM tu.. UMNO dah bising terbaru PAS bantah pulaforum anjuran Majlis Peguam Malaysia itu yg dinyatakan oleh YB Dato' Seri Tuan Guru Abdul Hadi Awang tetapi saya tertanya-tanya mana kenyataan daripada Pemimpin ISLAM yg bernaung dibawah PARTI KEADILAN RAKYAT yg kononnya memperjuangkan ISLAM?????

    Cuba anda semua sebar-sebarkan perkara ini mana tahu boleh dapat jawapannya..

    ini menyentuh hak kita umat islam yg telah diperuntukan oleh PERLEMBAGAAN yg kononnya di junjung oleh MAJLIS PEGUAM.. tp nampaknya PEGUAM-PEGUAM ISLAM kita yg ada di MALAYSIA ini pun hati tikus langsung tak berani..

  10. This is a very simple case for Anwar.
    Just convince the world that between 3 to 4.30 p.m. , 26 June 2008 he was so far away from Saiful and that condo.

    He wins.

  11. capt., obvious BN is committing suicide for all coming elections!they forgot that the newer voters would not take their bluffs so easily and yet they tried gain to fix Saudara DSAI! My conclusion is their acts not only appear to be stupid but indeed stupid.ABB would have cleansed his inaptitude to govern with an honorable and sincere act but he chose otherwise and this will surely unseat him faster than his contract with his deputy who is in no position to say anything because either way he would be a loser in the eye of the public! Let's all wait for the will of heaven!!

    I can't agree more. When it comes to protect the Malay and Islam, PKR is no where to be seen.

  14. Capt,

    I observe that blogger ketam likes to talk abt different topic not topic under discussion, not only in yr blog but also in others as well. Ini perangai jaguh kg laa.. kalau ya pun diupah UMNO/BN utk menjawab segala blog yg tidak friendly kpd parti yg semakin hanyut tu, pilihlah gelanggang & ketika yg sesuai. Jgn main sondol semborono saja.
