'I was stripped naked, my private parts examined'

Opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim said he was stripped naked and his private parts examined during the physical examination yesterday at Hospital Kuala Lumpur.
“When I was brought to the hospital, I was stripped naked for tests and had my private parts examined,” he told a packed 30-minute press conference at his house hours after he was freed on police bail.
“They also measured the necessary parts,” he quipped.
Anwar added that he refused to have his photographs taken and joked that “they could end up on YouTube”.
According to the PKR de facto leader, he also refused his blood to be taken during the medical examination.
Anwar, a former deputy premier who seeking to mount a political comeback after being sacked and jailed on sodomy and corruption charges a decade ago, was arrested by balaclava-clad police commandos in dramatic scenes yesterday.
He was taken to police headquarters and underwent a marathon six-hour questioning session before being escorted to the hospital for a medical examination.
The arrest was over allegations that he had sodomised 23-year-old former aide Mohamad Saiful Bukhari Azlan.

tunku : for sure in sodomy/rape etc cases, they need examine the private parts, so what the fuss? it is a normal procedure.nothing abnormal about it.i guess if they put it on youtube, maybe only 'his type' will view it.still wondering why you have to explain or give statement to the press that they measured your private part? anwar...........

Hello,

My guess is DSAI is shy because special parts were examine by male officers. Why dont female officers have the inspections instead?

standard procedure what..makes so much noise for what..kesian him jugak that he has to sleep on cold hard floor, but a lock-up is not exacly a place where u expect comfort right? point is, if he's treated the way anyone else placed under similar circumstances, then he's got no special grounds to complain. is he saying he's above the others? shame on how they arrested him though. but credits is due to AAB for making (and keeping) the promise that there wun be another black eye incident.

and they been telling the whole world that he was treated like a major criminal(well in my eyes he is).i think he wants the police a put him in a five star lockup room with bed, tv etc.who he think he is? he is not even have a job.on what capacity he wants special treatment.
anyway, for back ache , its good to sleep on the floor.

as you all already,it's standard procedure but Anwar make it as if it's a sin to do so.or is he just trying to gain sympathy?or is he shy?.he's the one who got the answer.

but this thing also prove another fact;no matter who we are we cant escape from the rules and regulations.even if you are a prominent figure.

Biasalah tu. Memang standard procedure pun. Tak perlulah nak diperbesarkan isu ni...

Hi

I think it's about time, somebody (with authority) clear up this issue about the "4 saksi".

My basic understanding is, you need 4"4 saksi" when you make an accusation.

But you dont need it if you are the victim.

This will go along way in "calming the natives" so to speak......:))

Dah tu, tengok laa apa tuduhan yang dia dapat sekarang. Meliwat tu pakai apa? Mesti arr check dekat situ, takkan senang2 je nanti nak dakwa dia, mesti kena detail sikit. Kalau dah nama dekat lokap, orang tak sediakan kot tilam air bersama kerusi urut..
